First I want to thank Negros First Blood Center staff for their commitment of serving the people of Bacolod and Negros . I am visiting from the states to help care for my father who has end stage cancer. 2 days ago we brought him to the hospital for blood transfusion I didn’t realize how hard it is to secure blood here in Bacolod. The process is agonizing... we first went to Red Cross, but was turned down because we have to have a person first that needs to donate blood before they can give us a unit of blood and it will cost 1.500 pesos, ( no senior discount is given ). We went to CLMMH , but there was no available unit. The local hosp where my father is admitted don’t have blood stocks. ( it’s the pts family’s responsibility to get one), Thankfully, a friend mentioned Negros First Bloodbank , we went there and in a short time we have secure a whole blood much cheaper price with senior citizen discount, ( packed red blood cells is what the doctor ordered, but not available ). We just got the whole blood, , the second unit were able to have packed red cells for my father. I am glad Bacolod is lucky to have one of the 2 Provincial blood banks in the Philippines . How we wish though it was located in a more better location. If you can have a sign by Abad Street so people will know where to go. I hope the government of the Philippines will look into these problem more closely. Negros First staff , even up to the security guards are courteous and helpful... Thank you very much! Marie P.
