"It was a great experience working on the AABB Certification in Fundamental Standards: Blood Banking and Transfusion Services. It certainly helps in looking at our QMS program from different angles and gives ample opportunity for improvement. AABB assessors are highly experienced in observing the blood bank process and are very cooperative and kind to provide guidance in understanding the standards and implementing the same. We learned a lot during the assessment process and from the AABB standards. Though the process is online and virtual, the questionnaire tool is designed in such a manner that it is able to assess each and every part of the blood bank. Many thanks to the AABB assessor and coordinator for helping us in our QMS improvement."
