[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Staff at Hwasun Jeonnam National University Hospital took the lead in practicing life-sharing through blood donation.


The Social Work Team at Hwasun Jeonnam National University Hospital announced on the 22nd that, together with the Korean Red Cross Gwangju-Jeonnam Blood Center, they held a "Love Blood Donation Campaign" in front of the hospital emergency room on the 20th.


This initiative was promoted to take the lead in addressing the emergency blood supply situation caused by the cancellation of group blood donations and the decline in individual donations due to the social distancing measures heightened during the fourth wave of COVID-19.


The Social Work Team practices "Love Blood Donation" twice a year to alleviate concerns about blood donation and foster a participatory atmosphere.


They also conduct a "Blood Donation Certificate Collection" campaign to support patients in difficult circumstances.



Son Obong, head of the Social Work Team, said, "Blood donation has significantly declined due to strengthened COVID-19 social distancing, worsening the blood supply situation. We are grateful that hospital staff actively participated in the blood donation campaign."
