The transfusion of blood is a
part of the total health care at
Mason General Hospital - a most
important and precious service
available to people in this area.
This service involves the drawing
of blood from a donor, the
storage of blood units, and the
transfusion of blood to patients in
need.
As a community Blood Bank,
it is a non-profit service available
to the physicians for their
patients. In 1970 nearly 600 units
of whole blood, mostly donated
by local persons, were
cross-matched and made available
for more than 300 patients who
had major surgery. In addition,
Three From Here
Enlist In Army
Three young men from the
Shelton area recently enlisted in
the United States Army according
to SSG Roderick Sinclair, local
Army Recruiter. All three enlisted
under the Guaranteed Option
Program.
Douglas Wallace, son of Mrs.
Violet Wallace of Shelton enlisted
in tile Army Aviation Program.
John Larson, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Austin Larson of Shelton
enlisted in the Army's Law
Enforcement field. He is now
taking Basic Training at Ft. Lewis.
Peter Covert, son of Dr.

as
[oo
the hospital Blood Bank provided
47 units of blood to 12 patients
in critical situations to replace
lost blood due to excessive
hemorrhage•
Equally important is the help
given to three local residents who
had open heart surgery in Seattle.
In these special cases 43 units
of blood were donated at Mason
General Hospital as advance
replacements for patients. Like
any good banking procedure,
credit can be arranged, as it was
for these patients through the
King County Central Blood Bank
in Seattle. Similar arrangements
can be made witil Blood Banks
located in Tacoma and Olympia.
Savings accounts are vital to
total blood bank service. An
adequate supply of whole blood is
stored in the Bank at all times and
is readily available for both
emergency and routine surgical
needs. A minimum supply of 14
units of varying blood-type
groups arc stored at the Hospital
Blood Bank. In addition to these
blood units on hand, a complete
file of potential blood donors
whose blood types have already
been determined is maintained•
By use of this donor file which
includes phone numbers it is
possible to reach a donor with a
rare blood type on relatively short
notice•
Residents of this community
as well as service organizations
and local companies are
encouraged to set up accounts or
pools at the Bank. By making
early deposits it is possible then
to use blood credits at any other
an
hospital in the United States as
may be designated by the
individual or groups. Local
organizations participating in the
Blood Bank are Simpson Timber
Company, ITT Rayonier,
Washington Corrections Center,
Certified Manufacturing
Company, Washington State
Patrol Academy, the Jaycees, the
Jayettes, and the Veterans of
Foreign Wars.
Any individual eligible to
donate blood may open a blood
bank account in their name.
Donors need only to request that
the donation be credited to
himself or another person - a
good life saving investment.
No substitute for blood has
yet been developed.
Blood may be given by any
healthy volunteer of age 18
through 65 years. A short medical
history sheet if filled out at the
time of registration, a check for
possible anemia is made, and if
the person is not under the care
of a physician it takes about one
hour to donate a unit of blood.
Orange juice and coffee is
provided following the procedure.
Giving blood ks safe and simple.
Medical direction of the blood
bank, which is part of the
Thurston - Mason County Blood
Bank operation, is under the
supervision of Dr. Kenneth
Partlow, an Olympia Pathologist.
The Blood Bank Technologist
is Joy Hurlbert and she can
provide anyone with further
information by calling the
hospital between 10 a.m. and 5
p.m.

Government Store. (6166)
Verle Schreiber, of Verle's Sporting Goods, failed to
claim his number, as did Tulla Kimball of K-9 Clips,
