This toolkit is designed to support the establishment and effective functioning of a Hospital Transfusion Committee (HTC) and was informed by cross-country learning, facilitated by the R4D-led USAID-funded Health Systems Strengthening Accelerator, among the national blood services of Liberia, Malawi and Rwanda and interviews with key informants. A hospital transfusion committee plays a critical role in ensuring the safety and efficacy of blood transfusion practices within healthcare settings.
This toolkit provides job aids for developing and/or reactivating hospital transfusion committees to help hospitals understand their importance and facilitate their functioning.
Produced in partnership with the Health Strategy and Delivery Foundation.
