We want to reassure everyone that our donor centres are centres of wellness. Only healthy people are eligible to donate with individual donors screened for any indication they may be unwell when they book to donate. Those who are sick are asked to wait until they are fully recovered before booking in.
Our centres are strictly regulated spaces so we have always adhered to strict sanitation protocols including wearing gloves, wiping down surfaces after every donation and using single use sterile collection kits for every donation.
We have also implemented a range of other measures to protect our donors and teams including:
- Daily cleaning of donor centres
- Increased cleaning of frequently used items and surfaces
- Providing additional hand sanitiser for donors
- Provision of public health information in every centre
- Implementing social distancing wherever possible
