Junie was Nasionale Bloedskenker-maand met \u201cWees \u2019n Held\u201d as een van die slagspreuke. En d\u00edt is presies wat bloedskenkers is \u2013 helde \u2013 want een skenking kan tot drie lewens red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Wes-Kaapse Bloeddiens hou maandeliks \u2019n bloedskenkkliniek by die Wes-kerk in Caledon, maar Maandag 26 Junie is daar vir die eerste keer ook \u2019n bloedskenkkliniek in die VGK-saal in Bergsig gehou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n Hermanus Times<\/i> het met Stephen Wildschut gesels oor hierdie eerste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDit is uiters moeilik en duur vir mense wat nie vervoer het nie om by die Wes-kerk uit te kom, daarom het ons besluit om \u2019n kliniek in Bergsig aan te bied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs die amptelike skenker-verteenwoordiger vir hierdie gebied het ek met die gemeenskap geskakel en ek het plakkate, wat deur die Wes-Kaapse Bloeddiens voorsien is, by winkels hier opgeplak, asook twee in die middedorp, onder meer by die Info-kiosk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie koue, nat weer het skenkers moontlik weerhou om vandag bloed te skenk, maar ons hoop dat hulle in die toekoms in groter getalle sal opdaag. Ons beoog om die kliniek hier in die VGK-saal elke tweede maand aan te bied,\u201d s\u00ea Wildschut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Candice Sinclair, streekskakelbeampte en bemarkingstoesighouer vir die Wes-Kaapse Bloeddiens, s\u00ea: \u201cOns is baie opgewonde om die kliniek hier te kan aanbied en ons dink dit is \u2019n goeie ding vir die gemeenskap, want dit is makliker bereikbaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOns wil graag soveel nuwe skenkers moontlik bereik en hulle aanmoedig om bloed te skenk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die prosedure om bloed te skenk, is eenvoudig en neem slegs omtrent \u2019n halfuur, maar daar is \u2019n paar vereistes waaraan voldoen moet word:.<\/span> Eet \u2019n goeie maaltyd voor jou skenking;.<\/span> Wees tussen 16 en 75 jaar oud;.<\/span> Weeg 50 kg of meer;.<\/span> Geniet goeie algehele gesondheid;.<\/span> Handhaaf \u2019n veilige seksuele lewenswyse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Goed opgeleide personeel is teenwoordig om u deur die hele proses te help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sinclair noem dat bloedvoorraad tans baie min is en moedig mense aan om bloed te skenk. Onthou, een skenking kan tot drie lewens red en \u2019n mens weet nooit wanneer jy of jou geliefdes dit mag nodig h\u00ea nie, so wees \u2019n held en skenk bloed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eric Mair en Bunty Cope het al die pad van Stanford gekom om hier by die VGK-saal te kom bloed skenk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Op \u2019n vraag oor hoekom hulle juis hierheen gekom het, het Mair geantwoord daar is geen bloedskenkingsdiens in Stanford beskikbaar nie en hulle het op die webtuiste van die Wes-Kaapse Bloeddiens (www.wcbs.org.za) gesien dit word hier in die VGK-saal aangebied.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Junie was Nasionale Bloedskenker-maand met \u201cWees \u2019n Held\u201d as een van die slagspreuke.
