Abstract: The mobile bus supplied by National AIDS control Organization throughout country to Government and NACO supported blood banks to increase the no of VBD camps to avoid difficulties faced by Medical Colleges and District blood Banks in the remote areas of the country. Material and method: The study was carried out in Tezpur Medical College and Hospital, Tezpur in retrospective manner from a period of two years, 2019 and 2020. It was noticed that constraints faced by general OPD camps by using conventional method was overcome, while the most sophisticated first class mobile bus was used. Material required from normal VBD camps like banners, posters, donor beds etc greatly reduced and increased no of blood collection recorded, using low economy and high efficacy. Results: The study was carried out in our blood bank. There is increased number VBD camps and increased of collection was noticed in both the years 2019 and 2020. Discussion and conclusion: Using blood mobile bus for OPD/VBD camps is most essential today blood bank practice to save man power and money. We strongly recommend updating the present model of this blood mobile to attract and encourage new upcoming donors who used to come close by and waiting for ?Selfie? with the bus and to encourage the other.
