It’s About To Get Easier To Donate Blood In The UAE With A New App

Avatar

It’s going to get easier to donate blood, with the announcement of an app to help – according to the Dubai Health Authority (DHA). 

The app, which will go live during April, will help potential donors to find blood donation banks, as well as fill out a questionnaire regarding viability to donate. 

The move coincides with the 2017 Year Of Giving, and a donation of 400ml can save up to three lives

The app will also store information of registered donors who agree to donate blood during emergencies and disasters, and reach out to them if the need arises, along with sending users newsletters and information on upcoming campaigns. 

“The aim of developing this app is to help the centre stay connected with all its donors, and provide both donors and potential donors with ease of use so that they are encouraged to donate blood and save lives.”

Dr. May Raouf, Director of the DHA Blood Donation Centre
