AVHTM Master Series: Veterinary Blood Banking Basics and Beyond 

This two-day, intensive lecture series and workshops is designed to accommodate all levels of veterinary blood bankers, though it is specifically geared towards the novice blood banker. Attendees will participate in hands-on live canine and feline donor collection and blood processing procedures, fractionating blood into various components. Topics covered in lecture and wet labs will include canine and feline donor selection and screening recommendations, collection techniques, component processing procedures and various blood typing and crossmatching techniques. Blood product administration and transfusion medicine reviews will round off this education packed weekend. Advanced classes from leaders in the industry will enhance the Master Series and create a well-rounded event for everyone.

Start / End times

Be ready to meet at HemoSolutions by 7:45 am on Saturday, August 16 and plan to stay until 6:00 pm. On Sunday, August 17, the day will begin at 8:00 am and end at 4:00 pm.

Airports

Colorado Springs Airport (COS) is the closest airport to HemoSolutions. Denver International Airport (DIA) is also an option; however, the cost to get from DIA to Colorado Springs may offset the cost of flying directly into Colorado Springs. We recommend you research prices, transfer times, and travel options that best suit your budget.
