Blood Donors Provide Vital Action For Community Preparedness 

Emergencies arise with no warning, so hospitals must be prepared to respond to whatever comes. It takes about 36 hours for a blood donation to be collected, tested, processed and delivered to a hospital where it can transform the lives of those who likely never thought they would be the ones in need. Vitalant – in concert with our hospital partners – works to provide a four-day supply of various blood components to cover the gamut of what will be needed; to be prepared for a long list of possibilities that include:

·     Childbirth complications ✔

·     Motor vehicle accidents ✔

·     Blood disease and disorders ✔

·     Burn injuries ✔

·     Cancer treatment effects ✔

·     Natural disasters that disrupt blood collections ✔

Blood donors like you exemplify their community commitment by donating and providing hope for those struck by the unexpected.  Help our community to be prepared for whatever comes next by scheduling your next blood donation now.

Because of you, life doesn’t stop.
