Blood Management Standard
	The Blood Management Standard mentioned in the NSQHS expects that at time of blood collection and storage, proper medical standards are followed and implemented. As mentioned by Sadana et al. (2018), collecting and storing blood after sample tests reduces the chances of infection, bacterial outbreak and adverse reaction on the blood administered patient. It also ensures that the medical staffs engaged in the collection, testing, storing and administering of blood do the pre-examination of the patient to avoid cross reaction after blood transfusion. Labelling of the blood samples and blood products correctly as well as providing authentic data about the usage and wastage of stored blood in their medical facility is also directed strictly by The Blood Management Standard. A proper idea about the usage of medical purpose stored blood, as mentioned by Crighton, New, Liley and Stanworth (2018), would provide in depth details about the medical status of the patients who require blood prescription.    
As mentioned by Shapiro et al. (2018), the fundamental aims of the Blood Management Standard is to make medical care providers as well as the medical care seekers understand the potential and post risk of blood transfusion. Based on my experience and rational thought process, I came to realise that standard procedure of blood collection makes the administered blood safe. As mix matching of blood cause allergic reaction which affects the condition of the patient adversely, emphasis on the accuracy of blood administering needs and specified blood group determination helps in improving the standards of care services. During my clinical practicum I observed that after blood transfusion, irrespective of error made by medical staffs or not, problems such as allergic reactions and fever can occur, causing discomfort to care users.
