You’re B-!
Watch this video to learn how your blood type and ideal donation support patient transfusion needs.
Your best donation types are...
Double Red Cells
Your red cells can be given to all B and AB patients, so this kind of donation has the greatest impact.
Platelets
Your blood type is rare, so your platelets make a big difference!
Whole Blood
B- patients can only receive B- and O- blood, so your donation is vital to help other B- patients.
Interested in donating double red cells, platelets, or whole blood? Read more about each donation type, or ask your phlebotomist for details. 🙂
These are the ideal donation types based on your blood type, but because hospital patient needs change daily, you may be asked to give a different donation type at your next donation appointment.
