If your health allows and you go through the donation procedure, you will be included in the Unified All-Russian Register of Donors, which contains data on the volumes of blood or its components received from you (plasma, red blood cells, leukocytes).

What should newbies do?

Are you donating blood for the first time in your life? Then you are entitled to benefits

The day of inspection and the day of donation itself is a paid day off for the employee at enterprises of all forms of ownership.

If you are a military personnel, you are required to be relieved of duty or assignments.

If you come to donate blood during vacation, on your day off or on a holiday, then the company must compensate you for this day - you can take a day off on any day that suits you or choose financial compensation. In the second case, you must be paid at double the rate for the day spent on donation.
If you donate blood and immediately go to work, then the opportunity to take a day off on another day is yours, and it will also be paid according to average earnings.

It is prohibited for donors engaged in heavy, dangerous or hazardous work to go to work on the day of donation.

The donor is entitled to lunch at government expense on the day of blood collection. At the request of the donor, it can be replaced with a cash payment equal to 5% living wage in Russia (approximately 400 rubles).

Please note that these social privileges are available not only to “Honorary Donors of the Russian Federation”, but also to “Honorary Donors of the USSR”, who received this title much earlier.

The authorities of each individual region Russian Federation has the right to determine benefits for donors at the local level. The city of Moscow is no exception. Here the procedure for obtaining a distinctive title is significantly simplified compared to others federal districts. Have you donated blood 20 times or plasma 30 times? Congratulations, you are now the owner of the title “Honorary Donor of Moscow” and the corresponding badge confirming this. From now on, your rights include:

free use of public transport;
free prosthetics;
50% discount on the use of housing and communal services.

Firstly, the title of honorary Moscow donor is not permanent. It must be confirmed by donating blood at least 2 times annually. This must be done constantly until you can become the owner of the title of Honorary Donor of Russia.

Secondly, the financing of benefits for Moscow donors does not have stable sources - the Moscow Health Department has not adopted amendments to the local law regarding this issue. Because of this, there is no real opportunity for Moscow donors to use their well-deserved benefits. So, they cannot travel for free on minibuses or the metro.

How to document the title “Honorary Donor”?

Having donated blood or its components the required number of times, you have the right to come to the local representative office of the Ministry social protection population. You can apply for a title yourself or use the services of an intermediary.

You will be required to provide:

passport or power of attorney, if the donor wishes to obtain the title through his representative;

an application written by you to receive a certificate and a badge that would classify you as an Honorary Donor of Russia.

Now, for the convenience of donors, a service has been created to fill out an application for this honorary title via the Internet. You will be required to log into the portal public services, find the corresponding application there and attach scanned copies of your passport and formal certificate No. 448-05/у to it.

Another option for adding a donor to the list of Honorary Donors of the country is to contact the multifunctional center at your place of residence. Again, you are required to provide a passport and a certificate (notarized copies are possible).

The period for obtaining the certificate does not depend on the method in which you submitted the documents and is 95 days.

By the way, there were also cases of refusal to confer a title. Most often this happens in three cases:

The donor did not include a certificate from the blood transfusion center with the package of documents.
If you provided false information in the provided documents.
If he lives in the city without registration.

After receiving the “Honorary Donor of Russia” certificate, you can apply for an annual benefit. To the representative office of the Ministry of Social Protection of Citizens located at your place of residence, you must provide:

Now the number of its owners is gradually growing, but this is still not enough. In 2008, there were 14 donors per thousand people. Ideally, this figure should reach 40 donors. Together we can achieve this!

Donation has always been equated to an honorable matter in Russia, since it is carried out by selfless and responsible people who are not indifferent to the fate of others. Currently, blood donation is being actively popularized - it is being distributed among young people, students, and schoolchildren. social advertisement, calling for blood donation at donor points. Young people are reassured that their help can be invaluable, and that with enough donated blood It will be quite possible to cope with many serious illnesses and injuries among our compatriots.

Active informing of schoolchildren and students bears fruit: for Lately The number of voluntary blood and plasma donors has increased significantly, and their number is only increasing every year. This is one of the most illustrative examples activity and responsibility of modern youth; yet many people continually criticize the current generation for the lack of these qualities.

Along with the active expansion of the circle of donors in Russia, there is also an increase in the number of honorary donors. Accordingly, this award is no longer so privileged. In this regard, the legislation has changed somewhat - the government has amended the bill regulating the receipt of an honorary badge.

In this article, we will tell you in detail not only about changes in the legislation on blood and plasma donation, but also about how to receive an honorary badge. You will also find out which legal basis There are now mixed blood donors. Especially for new donors, we will tell you:

what are the requirements for blood donors?
under what conditions can you donate blood?
what benefits are provided to blood donors on the day of donation.

You will learn all the basic information about blood donation, but the main focus in our article will be on the honorary donor badge: how to become honorary donor, what privileges this title gives, and so on.

Legal regulation of blood donation

Legislation that regulates the relationship between the donor, the host organization, and the volunteer’s place of work is both Labor Code Russian Federation, and the Federal Law “On the Donation of Blood and Its Components”.

The Labor Code is involved here primarily because the organization in which the volunteer is employed is obliged to provide him with some privileges during the donation of blood or its components (plasma, red blood cells, and so on). We will talk in more detail about the privileges that are provided to the donor from his organization a little later.

The federal law regulating the legal status of blood donors prescribes all the requirements for volunteers quite clearly and unambiguously. In the next section of the article we will analyze in detail all the requirements that are currently imposed on blood donors.

Who can become a blood donor in the Russian Federation in 2018-2019

The official website of the blood service presents a very convenient algorithm that allows you to determine whether you can become a blood donor in our country. The algorithm is quite simple, but converting it into text form is extremely difficult, and it will take up too much space. Therefore, we will simply briefly list the basic requirements for volunteers.

The most basic requirement is age. Unfortunately, citizens under eighteen years of age cannot become participants in such a program. This is why schoolchildren who receive information about donation are so disappointed when they learn about this requirement. But when they reach adulthood, the desire to become a voluntary donor of blood and its components turns into a completely conscious desire, which pushes them to take this important step.
The volunteer's weight should not be less than fifty kilograms. This is due to simple concern for the health of Russian citizens. If an adult weighs less than fifty kilograms, then taking such an amount of blood can have an extremely negative impact on his well-being. As a rule, thin citizens have an extremely difficult time even simple tests blood from a vein - what can we say about donation, which involves donating enough large quantity blood.
Lack of any chronic diseases, affecting the composition of the blood or immune system. This is a completely obvious requirement and there is no need to explain it.
It is necessary that the volunteer has never left our country within the last month. Abroad - especially in such exotic countries as the countries of the African continent, South America, south Asia and so on, there is great amount various infections, which our body, unadapted to them, is simply not able to tolerate. These infections enter the blood and change its composition, and therefore blood service employees are obliged to make sure that the citizen is not infected with any similar infection. Of course, no one will require any documentary evidence of this fact from you. However, please note that if you have been abroad for last month, then you will have to delay submitting the material. This period is set so that the infection (if any) has time to manifest itself. If within a month after returning home a person does not experience any ailments, then everything is in order with his health.
There are some special rules for girls and women. First of all, donating blood depends in part on menstrual cycle. You cannot donate blood during menstruation and for five days after. This is due to hormone surges and some changes in blood composition that accompany each menstruation in girls. Therefore, the donation of material at the blood collection point must be coordinated with your women's calendar. The second “female” rule concerns young mothers. You cannot become a voluntary blood donor within a year after giving birth.

When you hand over the material at the collection point you will receive:

one paid day off from your organization;
free food;
monetary compensation (this must be waived if you want to receive an honorary badge).

The problem of shortage of donor blood is one and main reason provision by the state of various benefits, compensation and payments. These measures social support encourage citizens to become personnel donors with the possibility of subsequently awarding them with the “Honorary Donor of Russia” badge.
