Hey Donna!
I get my transfusions in my hospital's Same Day Surgery unit. There are individual rooms for each patient, most of whom are awaiting GI procedures, pain management injections, or the administration of IV antibiotics. Some of these folks are pretty sick, but, on the whole, they seem less infectious than the inpatient folks. And the environment, while busy, is preferable to the moaning one sometimes encounters on the inpatient wards.
Maybe your hospital has a Day Surgery or Outpatient procedures unit?
Take Care!
Greg
