Blood donation process
The process takes about 1 hour in totality. This includes the time taken in queue for your check up, the time in taking your health test to see if you are fit to donate and the time taken by you to fill up the form with your medical details and other relevant personal information. Following this, the one of the healthcare experts present at the camp, will take a short interview about your health and medical history. This is a private and confidential conversation. Further, you might also be asked to produce your identity card to validate your identity prior to donation.
