The Canary Islands Health Service has launched a blood donation campaign in San Miguel de Abona, deploying a mobile unit to the Llano del Camello Civic Center.

The mobile unit will be operational until this Thursday. Interested citizens can visit the Llano del Camello Civic Center in the afternoon, from 16:15 to 19:30, except for the final day when the collection ends at 19:15.
This initiative aims to bolster blood reserves in Tenerife hospitals. In addition to this mobile unit, the health network maintains fixed donation points at locations such as Méndez Núñez street in Santa Cruz de Tenerife and the San Isidro Health Center in Granadilla de Abona.
Furthermore, hospitals across the island, including the Hospital Universitario de Canarias, Hospital Universitario Nuestra Señora de Candelaria, Hospiten Bellevue, and Hospital San Juan de Dios, offer permanent donation services, some of which accept walk-ins.
To donate, individuals must be between 18 and 65 years old, weigh over 50 kilograms, and be in good general health. For further information, the Canary Islands Health Service provides a toll-free number at 900 234 061 and the website efectodonacion.com.
