Anglican churches have no teaching prohibiting blood transfusions or other medical uses of blood products. Anglican bioethics engages with medical questions through the lens of natural law, Christian anthropology, and the church's pastoral tradition, consistently affirming the legitimacy of responsible medical care. The use of blood transfusions when medically necessary is understood as an expression of the duty to preserve life as God's gift.

Anglican bodies such as the Church of England's Mission and Public Affairs Council have engaged with medical ethics issues including end-of-life care, transplantation, and similar questions, consistently within a framework that supports rather than restricts life-saving medical treatment. There is no controversy within mainstream Anglicanism on this question.
