This Blood Bank could be life saving, as there will always be a supply of blood ready for use when ever it is needed. The blood is supplied from the Canadian Red Cross, is checked and labeled before storage in the very special fridge. This fridge is closely monitored through the lab and the nurses take over after hours, watch- ing the screen at the nurses station. Eight pints of blood are kept in the fridge, coming from Winnipeg and leaving for Thunder Bay within a month. As the blood only lasts for 37 days McCausland Hospital sends whatever is left to Thunder Bay so it can be utilized. The purchase of this most important fridge was made possible by a significant donation from the Bill Hanley Memorial Fund.
