Blood donation allows collection of all blood components (red cells, plasma, platelets) at once, in just 10 minutes. This is the most common type of donation.
During donation:
• Upon arrival, our team greets you and checks your identity. You will receive a pre-donation questionnaire to complete before your medical interview.
• A confidential meeting with a doctor or nurse ensures your safety and that of recipients.
• Blood is drawn while you’re lying down and under supervision. The collected volume ranges from 420 to 480 ml.
• After donating, relax at the Pause A+ with refreshments alongside other donors and volunteers.
Note: Blood volume is quickly replenished but avoid intense physical activity for several hours after donation.
