Groves Memorial Community Hospital Achieves Using Blood Wisely Designation
The InterHospital Laboratory Partnership is pleased to announce that Groves Memorial Community Hospital has been designated a Using Blood Wisely Hospital!
In 2024/2025, the IHLP embarked on an initiative to achieve Using Blood Wisely designation across our hospital sites. Using Blood Wisely is a national program focused on reducing inappropriate red blood cell (RBC) transfusion practices across Canada and promoting responsible stewardship of this important resource.
This designation reflects our collective commitment to patient safety, quality care, evidence-based transfusion practices, and responsible use of Canada's blood supply.
Congratulations to the Groves team on this important accomplishment!
