On December 16, 2024, on Monday - 9 a.m., I donated blood here for the first time. Everything is fine, there were few people in front of me, the attitude of the staff is good, they work quickly, give useful advice. They gave me tea before and after the procedure, gave me 2 hematogens and a bun. Since I took it for the first time, 350ml of blood was taken from me. I advise you!
There are very few signs, in Russian, so in general. Somehow they found where to donate their blood :)
I did not like that the analysis was taken not from a finger, as in Russia, but from vienna. Not only do you walk around with two leaky hands after that, but there are people whose veins are hiding and by a miracle you can find one on one hand, but it has already been pierced. Well, the finger is somehow easier to take, isn't it?
Otherwise, everything is super, they fed (they cook here themselves, very nice), the staff is polite.
It's very cool that visitors with regular registration can donate blood — in the same Kazakhstan you need at least a residence permit, and in the Russian Federation — citizenship. It's great that there are no stupid difficulties to help people
If you are from the maternity hospital in the direction, then immediately go to the 3rd floor, go around 3 offices then to the change
It takes a very long time to donate plasma (90-120 minutes)
The rest seems to be normal, people work slowly, however, as in any state-owned company
A specific case happened to us. My father needed a blood transfusion. They told us head-on to pay or bring people in the number of 9 people. Since it was urgent, we had to pay, after taking the nurse from the hospital in her car to this center so that she would take blood and we brought her back, where we later paid for the "blood" our father needed for transfusion. I don't know if this action is right for you to judge. I just shared a fact.
Good staff, they quickly take tests like you won't blink that you have already donated blood and a quick response of tests!!! It's fashionable to wait there for 15 minutes and everything is ready, it's not worth going 2 times for an analysis answer) However, there is a big disadvantage that the cash register for payment via a plastic card is located in the 10th kingdom 😅
I would like to express my gratitude to the employee of this cent, I don 't remember the exact name , but she waited for us even though her working day was over and brought us without any statements . And you can say you saved my wife's life.
Huge queues, one employee filling out documents before blood donation. The employee spent 15-20 minutes on each patient. There are 15 people in the queue. I didn't wait, I left
