When first responders become overwhelmed entities call the @TXEMTF8 to assist, and that was the case with the Hill Country floods. It is a massive undertaking requiring agencies from the entire state of Texas, and other countries, coming together as one.

We had a great time attending the @STRAC National Whole Blood Summit!

It was a valuable opportunity to connect with experts and explore key issues in whole blood and prehospital transfusion. We’re excited to help the blood community apply these insights to improve patient care.

[TETAF @tetaf_org]

It has been a heartbreaking month in Texas and the response efforts continue. The article from Texas Public Radio highlights the tremendous coordination by @STRAC during this time.

Cutting edge, first of its kind, programmatic approach to Rh- women getting O+ Whole blood from treatment to education to mitigate Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn (HDFN).🩸👶

[STRAC @STRAC]

Pre-hospital whole blood could save up to 10,000 lives in the U.S. each year.

19 of our 22 counties have whole blood within our region, but 214 TX counties still lack access. For us, this isn’t just a program - it’s a mission.
