Booking donors your unit can handle
Ask the blood bank how many beds the unit brings and how long each donor takes. Four beds and half-hour slots is a common setup, and the slot limits should match it.
The self-check is a reminder, not a screening. Staff do the health questions and the iron test on site.
First-time donors are the most likely to cancel. Answer their questions by text the day before, and they show up.
Hang a QR code poster in the break room or church hall two weeks before. Most bookings come in the first three days.
Blood drive sign-up questions
Does the form decide who is eligible to donate?
No. The checkbox reminds donors of the basic rules so fewer are turned away. The blood bank's staff check eligibility at the drive, and rules vary by country. In the US, most centers ask whole blood donors to wait 56 days between donations, and some states accept 16-year-olds with a parent's consent. Change the checkbox text to your blood bank's rules.
How do I match the slots to the number of beds?
Give each time slot as many places as you have beds. With four beds and five slots the form takes 20 donors and closes when they're booked. If the unit brings six beds, set each slot to six and the response limit to 30. Ask the bank whether staff need a break mid-morning, and drop that slot from the list.
Can I add walk-in slots?
Keep a few beds free on the day and leave them out of the form. Online bookings fill the planned places and walk-ins use the rest. A few booked donors usually don't show, so walk-ins fill those beds too. Put a sign at the door with the free times, and ask staff to note walk-in names so you can thank everyone afterward.
