These efforts have seen a remarkable increase following the campaign\u2019s launch, underscoring the growing role of institutions in promoting voluntary donations to support the sustainability of national health security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>KFSHRC is one of the largest tertiary care hospitals, requiring a steady supply of blood units and components, particularly for organ transplantation, cancer treatment, and complex surgeries. This highlights the vital importance of voluntary blood donation in enabling the hospital to save lives and enhance national health security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hospital called on all members of society to take the initiative to donate blood, noting that its blood banks in Riyadh, Jeddah, and Madinah are ready to welcome donors during the following times:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Riyadh: Sunday to Thursday, from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jeddah: Sunday to Thursday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Madinah: Sunday to Thursday, from 8:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The national campaign aims to raise awareness about the importance of voluntary blood donation, achieve self-sufficiency in blood units and components, and ensure safe and sustainable supplies to meet patients\u2019 needs across the Kingdom. A single blood donation can save the lives of more than one patient by providing blood, plasma, or platelets. In 2024, more than 800,000 donors contributed to this vital cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>KFSHRC has been ranked first in the Middle East and North Africa and 15th globally among the world\u2019s top 250 Academic Medical Centers for the second consecutive year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has also been recognized as the most valuable healthcare brand in the Kingdom and the Middle East, according to the 2024 Brand Finance rankings. In addition, Newsweek magazine included KFSHRC in the World\u2019s Best 250 Hospitals and the World\u2019s Best Smart Hospitals 2025 lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>King Faisal Specialist Hospital &amp; Research Centre (KFSHRC) has witnessed a growing turnout of blood donors since the launch of the national campaign initiated by His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister \u2013 may Allah protect him \u2013 reflecting the direct impact of this generous initiative &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":79667,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[3234,3554],"class_list":["post-79666","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-kfshrc","tag-national-blood-donation-campaign"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 -
