Please also see the ‘Blood Transfusion’ section of the NHS Choices website, which gives an account of the blood transfusion process, including the benefits and risks of the procedure and a patient’s experience of blood transfusion. There are further links from within NHS Choices to other sources of information from organisations involved with blood transfusion, such as the British Blood Transfusion Society and the UK Transfusion Services.
