Otherwise, if he gives blood, even at a blood-mobile type thing, they will give him a donor card that has his blood type on it.

]]>It seems to me that N’s blood type is valuable information that should be known before a decision is made. I’m trying to remember how we knew my husband was O+.

]]>Yep, they don’t even care what N’s blood type is and sadly we still don’t know it. If he were rh- the shot is not needed. You are understanding it perfectly correct they are just okay with giving it (and I suspect billing for it) in all cases. They say it is to make sure nobody slips through the cracks but I feel like it is more about laziness or income rather than about anybody’s well being.
They don’t even care if we don’t know his blood type and they should be referring us to someone who can draw his blood and find out his status before recommending anything. I would love to stop in at the local blood bank and have him donate some blood, if they’ll tell us his blood type/ rh factor.
