We visited pusat darah negara during our haematology and immunology block. we were accompanied by dr Farzana Rizwan and Dr imam sheikh. at first we were given a small lecture by one of the staffs there. We were told about the importance and types of blood people normally donates and we also got the opportunity to learn about a new blood type called bombay blood type. In addition to this we learnt about the entire blood donation and transfusion procedure with their underlying risks.
I donated blood in here too!! It is really fun to donate. We got to know about how the processing of blood is done in there laboratories together with their storage. The information i learnt from this visit helped me in my exam and im sure it will come handy even in future when i start my career.
