Each year, nearly two million people come to the collection points of the French Blood Establishment (EFS). There are more than 120 donation houses spread across the country, to which are added 40.000 mobile collections organized each year in public places, companies, universities, etc.

Whether the collection point is fixed or mobile, you are greeted on site by EFS staff or a volunteer. You fill out a questionnaire about your state of health and your lifestyle requiring simple answers (Yes / No / Don’t know). Then, the (a) secretary is responsible for registering your file. .. Any information communicated will not be disclosed. The sole purpose of the questionnaire is to prepare for the next step: the pre-donation interview with a healthcare professional.
