I've seen the Red Cross facilities in the old city. Are they set up for blood donations on a walk-in basis? Are hospitals? Thanks in advance.

THE NATION: Thai Red Cross opens during Songkran festival from 8am to 3.30pm.//finally blood for a good cause

Hi

You can donate blood at Nakorn Ping hospital on Mae Rim road, ground floor room 104, a bit tricky to find ( the room...), and almost impossible to park a car there on weekends.... I've been there many times, and I always try to bring a friend along with me...

I saw them recently downstairs at Tesco just ouside the window of the pizza place. Got to say if it was my restaurant I wouldnt have been too happy. No screens, just people lying there giving blood.

Central next to the World Sport there is Red Cross place, another one in the city not far from Reagge road (road behind Irish pub with reagge bars etc...)

Another one is Suandok hospital - ask in information where you can donate your blood.
