More than 50 cadets, students, and representatives of the administration of the Dnipro State University of Internal Affairs took part in a mass blood donation.
The event was held at the Dnipropetrovsk Mechnikov Regional Clinical Hospital.
DSUIA representatives regularly participate in blood donation to support the military. The event was opened by the head of the medical institution, Serhii Ryzhenko, who thanked the donors for their civic position and willingness to help.
The Director of the Educational and Scientific Institute of Law and Innovative Education at DSUIA, Volodymyr Shablystyi, emphasized that systematic blood donation practiced by the university is one of the foundations for regularly replenishing the blood and blood components reserves at Mechnikov Hospital. Students and staff of the university are aware of this and always respond to the calls of doctors and take part in donations.
In preparation for the procedure, donors follow a specific diet, adhere to doctors’ recommendations, undergo medical examinations, and are admitted to donate blood only in the absence of medical contraindications.
About 400 ml of blood was collected from each participant — this blood will become a chance for life for wounded defenders.
