Factual error: At the very end of the film Bruce is reporting on a drive for blood donors, and Grace leads him over to the booth to give blood himself - he is even wearing a tourniquet. However, he is supporting himself on a walking stick - he is not fully recovered from the injuries he received when he was run over, which happened when he was hit by a moving car - injuries which left him clinically dead. There is absolutely no way that a person who has suffered life threatening injuries and has undergone the (inevitably) intensive drug therapies and surgical procedures involved while under treatment in hospital in the fairly recent past would be allowed to give blood. There is no way that the Red Cross (or the US equivalent) would want to encourage people who have recently been hospitalised to try to give blood. Not only would that be the height of irresponsibility, they would be wasting precious resources and staff time turning away people who would not be allowed to give blood.

Suggested correction: There's no indication of how much time has passed from when Bruce was in hospital. It may have been months. His using a stick may be a long-term result of physical injuries. It's therefore reasonable to assume that Bruce hadn't only recently recovered and was therefore deemed a valid donor.

He has not recovered from his injuries. It does not matter how long ago the accident was; someone unable to walk unaided would inevitably still be receiving painkillers and would be undergoing other medical therapies. He is absolutely not eligible to register as a blood donor, and the Red Cross would never allow him to undertake business for them.

Not everyone in the world who walks unaided has to be taking painkillers and undergoing medical procedures. I have a friend currently using a walking frame following a recent fall. They're no longer taking medication. They've said they don't really need to use the frame but it's physiological. They just feel safer doing so until their confidence increases. Unfortunately, we aren't giving enough information about Bruce's condition or timeline to draw factual conclusions.
