Blood donation agencies carry out their business in accordance with the ''Blood Donation Agency Establishment Standards'' and implement blood self-sufficiency policy. In addition to collecting safe blood for the patients, blood donation agencies also play an important role in the public health system for prevention and monitoring of infectious diseases. Health check-up services for frequent blood donors can promote the health maintenance of blood donors and also have the benefit of stabilizing the blood sources.
