An Android Application for Volunteer Blood Donors

Abstract

There is an expectation that the blood will always be there when it is really needed.Blood donor volunteers constitute the main supply source in an effective blood supply chain management.They feed blood stocks through their donation.In an emergency situation, if the stocks are insufficient, the only source of blood supply will be the people who come to the health center and donate the blood on a voluntary basis.It is certain that time is a very important component in such situation.For this reason, the health care center should call the nearest available donor in order to ensure to get the service as quickly as possible.A smart phone application is developed to facilitate the identification of the nearest available blood donor volunteer and the communication with him/her in the emergency situations where the blood can't be supplied through the blood banks' stocks.In this paper this application will be presented.
