Always remember: How can you help save lives? By giving blood! Always remember: How can you help save lives? By giving blood. 🩸 Just one donation can save up to three lives. That’s why we support AABB's Blood Donor Month initiative with the goal of increasing blood donations during this period. #bloodbank #bloodirradiation #givingequalsliving #transfusion #bloodsafety #bloodirradiation 

I am alive today because of some amazing people. My wife, Medical professionals, NSW Health and a loving and compassionate family who, at a time of tragic loss, found the strength to consent to Organ Donation. I am now and forever will be a passionate advocate for Organ Donation and the critical role families have in making the final decision to donate their loved one’s organs. The messaging and focus of the OTA is in desperate need of reform. As of today there is still no announcement on The Donatelife Community Partners? Today marks the end of April! But why is that significant? Let's talk funding applications for 2024. They opened back on Thursday, February 1, 2024, at 10:00am AEDT, and they closed Friday, March 1, 2024, at 4:00pm AEDST. That gave everyone just 30 days to get their applications ready and submitted! 💼 According to DONATELIFE OTA's own website, successful applicants were supposed to be announced this month - April. But here we are, 60 days after the applications closed, and even those who didn't make it haven't been given any feedback! 🤔 It's just another example of an organisation in chaos. Despite the CEO being awarded an OAM for services to organ donation, the reality is quite grim. Consent, registration, and donation rates have been declining for six years. It's clear that Australia's organ and tissue donation system needs serious reform. 🚑 #OrganDonation #FundingApplications #reformneeded Australian Organ and Tissue Authority Anne Ruston Gerardine (Ged) Kearney

While many are familiar with the need for blood donation, the unique role of plasma donation may not always receive the same level of attention. Both blood and plasma donations are equally important in supporting healthcare systems and saving lives. Share the stories and experiences of patients and plasma donors to inspire others. By highlighting the impact that individual donors have on saving and improving lives, we can encourage more people to donate.

Donate Blood Save Life 🙏🏻 After donating blood, the body works to replenish the blood loss. This stimulates the production of new blood cells and in turn, helps in maintaining good health. TYPES OF DONATION The average human body contains about five liters of blood, which is made of several cellular and non-cellular components such as Red blood cell, Platelet, and Plasma. Each type of component has its unique properties and can be used for different indications. The donated blood is separated into these components by the blood centre and one donated unit can save upto four lives depending on the number of components separated from your blood. #donate #blood #save #life

What did you do on your lunch break? It’s better to give than receive! A few fun facts about O+blood: Donating: O+ donors can donate blood to patients with any positive blood type or O+ blood. Whole blood is the most needed donation for O+ donors. O+ blood is also ideal for Super Reds donations, which provide patients with twice as many red blood cells. Receiving: O+ donors can only receive blood from O+ and O- donors. Special considerations: O+ donors who are CMV negative are known as Heroes for Babies at the Red Cross because their blood is the safest for transfusions for immune deficient newborns. I am one those Heroes and have done a direct donation for a preemie before!
