This month’s blood drive is scheduled on Tuesday, April 14, at the John D. Hooker Building. The blood drive donation hours are 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.
-
Donors are reminded that RapidPass allows you to start the blood donation process from the comfort of your home or office. The donor can answer health history questions before arriving at the blood drive location. This can save as much as 15-20 minutes in the donation process! RapidPass must be completed the day of the drive and can be found at http://www.redcrossblood.org/RapidPass. The donor can bring a hard copy or copy it to your cell phone.
-
The Red Cross encourages all donors to get a good night’s sleep, to eat a good breakfast or lunch, drink plenty of water, and bring a picture ID with them to the drive.
-
Donors can make an appointment up to the time of donation through the blood donor app, by calling 1-800-REDCROSS (733-2767) or online by going to www.redcrossblood.org and searching 24171.
-
This month’s sponsor is Healing Waters Day Spa located in Patrick Springs.
-
This month’s goal is 20 whole blood units and 4 double red units.. The volunteers look forward to serving you and making your donation a pleasant experience.
We hope to see you at the oldest blood drive in Patrick County Tuesday, April 14.
