Former Air Force member Stuart Boxenbaum has presided over Statewide Financial Group, Inc., for more than 25 years. Beyond his professional experience as a financial advisor, Stuart Boxenbaum also has an interest in high-quality health care services. He frequently donates his type O-negative blood to the One Blood organization. Thanks to his actions, countless lives have been saved.
While the health care system needs donations from all blood types, type O blood is especially valuable for patients with life-threatening traumatic injuries. This is because type O is administered during emergency situations when the blood type is unknown.
Type O blood has two types, negative and positive. Type O negative is considered universal, as patients of all blood types can receive this form safely. It is also used to provide transfusions to premature infants. Type O positive is highly compatible with other positive blood types. Further, it is the most common blood type, and therefore the most needed.
