Wonderful donation center with friendly and competent phlebotomists. I donate platelets and have never had a bad experience. The beds are nicely spaced, allowing room for each donor and machine. The donation experience from start to finish is always smooth and hassle free - it's never a long wait after checking in to get into the evaluation room to check your health stats and ensure you are eligible to donate. Each bed has a TV, so you can watch Netflix while you are generously donating your platelets or power reds. Every phlebotomist working here is very skilled and makes the needle insertion process painless and quick - something to note if you've been wanting to donate but are nervous about the needles. They are also so friendly and accommodating-they make sure your are comfortable throughout the duration of your donation - which for me is usually around 2 hours if I give a double unit, or 80 minutes for a single. I do recommend bringing your own blanket because you can get chilly when your blood and fluids are returned to you. Also, I recommend taking tums right before you start your platelet donation-just ask your phlebotomist for some (helps prevent any citrate reaction during your donation). After your donation is complete you can choose a snack from a wonderful selection of yummy things, plus there is water or juice to rehydrate yourself. Overall, if you're going to donate blood I highly recommend this center. If you've never donated please consider doing so! Only 3% of eligible people donate and the need for blood is constant - particularly for platelets as they can only be kept for 5 days... And they are vital for patients fighting cancer.

I've been donating platelets there every two weeks for twenty years and have always had a good experience. The staff is friendly, professional and well-trained. Regular blood donations and power red donations are also accepted at this site. It is best to schedule your appointments online at redcrossblood.org
