Given low numbers of donors in the Australian panel, there is a need to better understand motivators and barriers specific to anti\u2010D donors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A qualitative approach was used to gather perspectives of staff and current anti\u2010D donors in Australia. Focus groups were held with staff involved with the anti\u2010D programme. An asynchronous online discussion forum and interviews were conducted with donors. All data were coded using deductive and inductive thematic analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Staff stressed the importance of recruiting donors who met their own informal criteria as well as the formal selection criteria in order to maximize the chances of donors committing to making regular plasma donations. In contrast, donors were motivated by having a personal connection to anti\u2010D, the recipient group and being eligible to join the programme. Support from staff and understanding the value of their donations also helped donors overcome concerns about the risks of joining the programme and reduced barriers to remaining in the programme.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Anti\u2010D donors in Australia are motivated by multiple factors, including knowing who the recipient is, and dedicated staff are integral to building donors' commitment through education and support. Findings suggest the current approach to recruitment could be broadened to include all donors who meet formal selection criteria, with retention enhanced by reinforcing and rewarding the motives identified by donors for donating.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/vox.13242","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,10]],"date-time":"2022-01-10T02:22:55Z","timestamp":1641781375000},"page":"664-670","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["It is about who you know (and how you help them): Insights from staff and donors about how to recruit and retain a panel of committed <scp>anti\u2010D<\/scp> donors"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"117","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4415-9438","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rachel","family":"Thorpe","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Services and Research, Australian Red Cross Lifeblood  Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Health Equity, Melbourne School of Population and Global Health The University of Melbourne  Parkville Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sarah P.","family":"Kruse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Services and Research, Australian Red Cross Lifeblood  Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9385-6497","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Barbara M.","family":"Masser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Services and Research, Australian Red Cross Lifeblood  Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Australian Red Cross Lifeblood Chair in Donor Research, School of Psychology The University of Queensland  Brisbane Queensland Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016349509021175"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5694\/mja17.01144"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/01443610701469941"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/blre.1999.0123"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1537-2995.1981.21181127486.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/trf.14490"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2393-14-87"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_9_1","volume-title":"Rh program National Monthly Activity Report September 2019.
