Abstract

The responsibility of the hospital in blood transfusion services is needed to provide protection to patients. Blood transfusion service is a series of activities that start from the planning, mobilization and preservation of blood donors, blood supply, blood distribution, as well as medical treatment of giving blood to recipients (patients). Blood transfusion services in hospitals must ensure the safety of patients who receive them, as well as for health workers who do them. Health workers when performing blood transfusions are required to work in accordance with standard operational procedures, thorough and careful in accordance with the purpose of the blood transfusion. If this is not done and an error occurs during a blood transfusion on a patient in the hospital will certainly harm the patient so that it can bring up a lawsuit. The lawsuit can be carried out both in Civil and Criminal Procedure. Civil and criminal lawsuits are not only the responsibility of the health worker who made a mistake but also the responsibility of the Hospital where the incident occurred.
