Ontario Hydro Blood donor clinic meets its target EXETER - Last Tuesday the Ausable River Nomads Camping Club organized another successful Blood Donor clinic. A total of 257 units of blood were collected by the Red Cross staff at the clinic, passing the 200 unit quo- ta. Blood is always needed and it's the donors that make it available, say the Nomads. In 1994 the Red Cross will be adding new procedures for blood donations which includes the do- nor's temperature and blood pres- sure, also the donor's health assess- ment questionnaire and interview with the clinic nurse. Both the Nomads and the Red Cross were pleased with the turnout and the next clinic will be held in the spring of 1994.
