How about the EMTs or Paramedics who might be Jehovah's Witnesses and are against blood products? Some have even been known to discuss this with the patient on the way to the trauma center?
In cases such as these, at least in my opinion, religious considerations are a must. Some patients do have have real concerns and we as patient advocates need to be aware and understanding. A person's religion is something of a special circumstance, and there are times when the "rules" change as a result.
