Bangkok Hospital Pattaya and Rajadhevi Sriracha Hospital launched another of their periodic blood drives to replenish national Red Cross supplies.
More than 100 people turned up at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya and 111 at Rajadhevi April 25 for the start of the latest “Power of New Blood” campaign. The Sriracha hospital collected 105 units the first day.
Rajadhevi nurse Rungthiwa Sewranont said the blood collected will go primarily to facilities in seven eastern provinces and be kept at the National Blood Bank’s Region 3 office.
Bangkok Hospital Pattaya and Rajadhevi Sriracha Hospital have launched a blood drive to replenish national Red Cross supplies.
“I always like to donate blood. This is my eighth time,” said donor Aareerat Nilbanp. “I want to help others and I believe that donating blood is an act of merit making. I would like to invite everyone, even those who have never donated before, to do so. It’s not as scary as it looks.”
The blood drive is the third by the two hospitals since December.
