Our staff members are there the whole way to help you feel relaxed and comfortable.

Below are some tips you can try to help you relax

 

  • Bringing a friend for the company to distract you.
  • Not looking during puncture is the most used trick by new donors. Our donor centers also have TVs to watch and friendly people to chat with instead.
  • Sharing on social media that you’re donating. See how many likes you can get!
  • Rewarding yourself after you donate. Whether it’s a guilt-free muffin or a special treat you’ve been looking forward to, it helps to concentrate on the reward.
  • Remembering that people who receive blood have needles too. Many of them are scared as well. Your donation could help them get through a tough time – or even save their lives.
  • The rewards are worth it. Your courage could change someone’s life!
