Al Ahli Hospital, in cooperation with Hamad Medical Corporation’s (HMC) Blood Donor Unit, will hold a blood donation drive from 8am until 12 noon on March 14 in the Al Ahli Hospital parking area. Members of the public are invited to participate along with Al Ahli Hospital staff.
Abdulwahed Abdulla Al Mawlawi, Managing Director and CEO of Medicare Group and Al Ahli Hospital said: “We at Al Ahli Hospital promote the philosophy of love and is there a more gracious way than donating your blood to a person in need? By donating blood you are potentially helping to save lives and such a selfless act is indeed commendable”.
Dr Abdul Azim Hussein, Medical Director of Al Ahli Hospital said: “Unfortunately, people are often only made aware of the importance of blood donation when there is a necessity within their family for an emergency transfusion. As a surgeon, I cannot stress enough the vital role that the public plays when they donate blood.”
