Safety protocols that will be followed for blood drives (including but not limited to)…
- Screening & Personal protection:
- Everyone (staff, donors, volunteers) participating will be masked
- Everyone will have their temperature taken
- Hand sanitizer will be available at every stage of process
- Gloves will be available to donors
- *Staff are required to wear gloves and change them often
- Social Distancing: Blood Drive will follow social distancing and room capacity guidelines.
- All individuals will be 6 feet+ apart. The blood drive goal has been lowered and spread the drive out over 2 days to make this possible.
- Donors will be processed on an appointment only basis
- There would be no waiting area, instead donors will be texted when there is a bed ready for them
- Canteen/recovery area will be in a separate room with pre-selected/pre-packaged drinks and snacks (so donors are only touching what they eat)
- Cleaning:
- All surfaces will be completely disinfected before and after each donor (including pens, laptops, laminated information packets, beds/chairs, etc)
