Think you can’t donate blood? You might be surprised. Old rules and myths stop many people from donating – but guidelines have changed. Lives are saved everyday thanks to blood donors. It’s worth checking if you’re eligible.❤️

Critically injured patients with uncontrolled bleeding often need blood & plasma within minutes for survival. Major traumas can require up to 100 units of blood & quickly deplete a trauma center’s blood supply. You can help hospitals have blood on hand: rcblood.org/appt
