I have a question regarding the new blood label. It looks like there is not a true unit number on the label. Will we be scanning blood now, as it looks like there are a lot of barcodes on the new label. Thanks for clarifying. Katherine
ReplyDeleteGreat question Katherine- I clarified with blood bank. The DONOR ID number in the top left corner is the "Unit" number. We will NOT be scanning blood at this time. I hope this helps.
