Choose your path
I need blood-donor support
Start with the details from the treating hospital, then review responses from your account.
How coordination works
Four steps, with the hospital in charge of the medical side.
Share the hospital-provided requirement
The requester posts the blood group, units, timing and donation location given by the treating hospital.
Donors review the request
Nearby donors read the details and check their own availability. Nobody is assigned automatically.
A donor accepts and gives consent
Accepting is the donor’s explicit choice. Only then is the permitted coordination contact shared.
Coordinate with the donation centre
The hospital or donation centre assesses eligibility and manages the donation itself.
An accepted response is an offer to coordinate — not a completed donation, and not confirmation of eligibility.
For voluntary donors
Help on your terms.
Create a donor profile, review the requests available to you, and decide whether to respond. Nothing happens to your contact details until you choose to accept.
- Your availabilitySet when you can be contacted and change it from your account.
- Your decisionEach request is a separate choice. You can always decline.
- Your consentYour contact is shared only through the consent you give when responding.
