<h3>What is blood transfusion?</h3>
Blood transfusion is a medical procedure of transferring blood and blood products into a person's circulation intravenously.
If the family member of a client who is prescribed a blood transfusion mentions that blood transfusions are not permitted in their faith, the nurse is expected inform the primary healthcare provider and not perform the blood transfusion.
The reason is because the client or the client's family member has the right to refuse treatment and the nurse should value their beliefs and faith.
