How is Our Blood Supply

To ensure a steady supply of blood for public use in peacetime and during emergencies, it is vital that a 6-day supply of blood is maintained.

A high level of disaster preparedness is also maintained at all times, with contingency plans to meet all disaster scenarios requiring large amounts of blood.

Selective Blood Donations

Our national blood donor recruiter, the Singapore Red Cross, may make appeals for blood donors of specific blood groups from time to time.

Such appeals will be for specific blood groups that are currently in short supply (e.g. O+ or A –), or they might be needed by patients with rare blood groups.

In times of need, suitable donors might be contacted via phone, SMS or mail.
