A Rh negative patient cannot receive Rh positive blood as it will cause a antibody reaction to the donor plasma, but a Rh positive patient can receive Rh negative blood as the donor blood lacks the Rh antibody component.

PS the Rh factor is present on Red blood cells and not in Plasma

No, Rh negative patients should not receive Rh positive plasma as it can lead to an immune response and formation of antibodies that can cause hemolytic reactions in the future. It is important to match the Rh factor of the plasma with the Rh factor of the patient to avoid complications.
