Session Screens

Descriptions

NHSBT requires a screen system for use in blood donation environments that is flexible enough to be used to construct temporary booths for confidential health screening and for the preservation of the dignity if a donor is unwell.All donors are required to have a health assessment, including a screening interview, before they donate blood. It is vital that donors are confident that the health interviews are conducted in a private area. Donors who feel they can be seen or overheard may not provide information essential to ensure their safety and a safe blood supply.Most whole blood donations are collected by mobile teams who are dependent on using a variety of accommodation ranging from church halls and community centres, to industrial sites and colleges. The diversity of environments presents a challenge for the collection teams when providing areas where health interviews can be conducted in private.
