[DanaWard]

My name is Dana Ward and I am one of the volunteers here at noblood. I am focusing my efforts to help maintain the Bloodless Medicine and Surgery Hospital Directory.

The Bloodless Medicine and Surgery (BMS) Hospital Directory is a resource for patients and healthcare providers who would like to find hospitals in their area that offer a more comprehensive approach by providing transfusion alternatives and advance blood management.

Please read our disclaim as follows:

NoBlood does not make any claim or distinction as to the level of skill, experience, or competency of the institutions offering these services. Since there is currently no set standard of care regulated or recognized for hospitals that offer what are commonly referred to as bloodless, transfusion-free, blood conservation or blood management services, this list is provided merely as a service to the public based on the claim of the institutions mentioned and nothing more. As a potential patient and consumer, each individual should contact the facility of their choice and interview the prospective physicians and healthcare providers to determine whether they satisfy his or her needs in the stated specialty or not.

While we have made great progress with cataloging hospitals in the USA, we could use some help in identifying hospitals in other parts of the world that provide advance transfusion alternatives and blood management.

Here is a link to the map of resources that we have thus far: The World of Bloodless Medicine and Surgery.

I am meeting a lot of wonderful people, all over the world. This is such a wonderful privilege to be able to contact these knowledgeable people about Bloodless Surgery and Transfusion Free Medicine options. It is a rather large assignment though. If anyone would like to volunteer to assist me in making this the most accurate and most up to date Bloodless Directory in the entire world, not to mention, talk to lots and lots of cool people around the world, it would be a pleasure to work with you.
