There must be 2 ABORh types from different samples on all patients requiring a transfusion. The only exceptions are patient who type as O (+ or -) or if they are in the OR. The blood bank calls the floor for the second sample. We will not accepted 2 samples received in the BB at the same time as 2 separate samples. This policy has been in effect for some time in the largest site and has prevent many errors especially from July to Oct when all the new "kids" arrive. When we retest the second sample we have the option of having a different name for the test and it does not charge the patient.
