Welcome to the official LinkedIn page for Canadian Blood Services. We manage the national supply of blood, blood products, stem cells and related services for all the provinces and territories (excluding Quebec). We also lead an integrated, interprovincial system for organ donation and transplantation for all of Canada. We are dedicated to improving patient outcomes through the manufacturing and delivery of safe, relevant, quality products and services to Canadians. Generous donors, volunteers, corporate partners and employees make this possible. We are grateful for their ongoing commitment to helping save or improve the lives of many Canadians. Canadian Blood Services operates an integrated, pan-Canadian service delivery model. Our national scope, infrastructure and governance make us unique in the Canadian healthcare landscape. Canadian Blood Services was founded in 1998, based on recommendations from the Krever Report on the tainted blood scandal. We are regulated as a biologics manufacturer by Health Canada and primarily funded by the provincial and territorial ministries of health. Canadian Blood Services is a not-for-profit charitable organization whose mission is to operate Canada’s blood supply in a manner that gains the trust, commitment and confidence of all Canadians by providing a safe, secure, cost-effective, affordable and accessible supply of quality blood, blood products and their alternatives. Canadian Blood Services strives to create informative and engaging communities on social media. We ask that users heed our Community Guidelines [http://ow.ly/Ol9a3].
