• The American Red Cross is facing a national blood crisis – its worst blood shortage in over a decade, posing a concerning risk to patient care. Doctors have been forced to make difficult decisions about who receives transfusions and who will need to wait until more products become available. Blood donations are critically needed to help prevent further delays in vital medical treatments. Due to the National Blood Crisis all blood types except for AB+ and AB- are eligible for power red donations until further notice! Please encourage your eligible donors to schedule a Power Red donation at your blood drive.
• To help meet the needs of patients who are immunocompromised and may benefit from COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP), the Red Cross will resume testing all blood donations for COVID-19 antibodies, to identify potential units that can be manufactured into CCP. We hope that by testing all blood donations for COVID-19 antibodies, we may provide donors insight into their own COVID-19 antibody status.

Remember:

1. Anyone 16 and up can give.  If you are 16 you will need a signed parent permission form each time - you can give these to Mrs. Lewis ahead of time or bring them with you the day of the drive.

• You need your driver’s license OR your blood donor card.  

• Please remember to eat a good breakfast and lunch and drink

extra fluids.  We don’t want you getting sick or passing out!  

• We would like to keep our double red machines busy all day.  If you are type O-, O+, A-, or B-+ we’d love for you to sign up to give doubles (2RBC on the sign up sheet).

• You can speed things up by going to

http://www.redcrossblood.org/rapidpass and answering the questions ahead of time.  This has to be done the day of the drive.  You can’t do it the night before.  Now you can do it from your phone!

• There is an app for your phone that contains your donor card and all of your information.  Workers can scan it for your information.  It also keeps track of how many times you’ve donated and also allows you to make appointments.  Look for this symbol in the app store.

• If you gave doubles at our last drive you won’t be able to give at this one.  Thank you for your previous donation!

• Athletes in season are discouraged from donating - it takes 6 weeks to replace red blood cells - so it could prevent you from performing at your peak level.  Please donate once you are out of season!

• Sign up with a blood drive representative during

lunch or email Mrs. Lewis to set up a time.

• Grab your friends, sign up and give!

• Please help us reach our goal of 70 usable units!
