Recipes and Tools to "Beef Up" Your Transfusion Service
Description
Assessment/inspection report statistics show that there are certain standards and requirements that transfusion services struggle with the most. This session will address those weaknesses and how you can identify areas in your own transfusion service that need some attention. Practical ideas and examples will be shared on ways you can strengthen, control and "beef up" those vulnerable weak spots in your operations and quality systems.

  • Describe ways to pinpoint weaknesses in your own department and develop an action plan to correct them.
  • Discuss and share examples of documents and tools that can be used to "beef up" your operations and quality systems.
  • Identify the elements and processes in transfusion services that are most often found to be weak or out of compliance at inspection time.
