Temporary Suspension of Blood Donations at Nicosia General Hospital

Nicosia General Hospital announced a temporary suspension of blood donations for outpatients on Saturday, March 21, 2026, between 8:30 AM and 11:00 AM. The suspension is due to a scheduled upgrade of the hospital's information systems. During this period, it will not be possible to schedule referrals, issue labels, or collect fees for Clinical Laboratory tests. The State Health Services Organization (SHSO) urges the public to schedule their blood donations outside of this timeframe to avoid any inconvenience. The system upgrade is necessary to improve the hospital's operation and provide better services in the future.
