Blood donors have the potential of touching up to three lives when donating blood.
Southeast Georgia Health System will partner with the
American Red Cross to host a blood drive on St. Patrick’s Day, Friday, March 17, giving
donors the opportunity to be someone’s lucky charm.
The blood drive will be held at the Health System’s
Brunswick Campus, 2415 Parkwood Drive, in the Linda S. Pinson Conference Center, Room 1,
from 10:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
Appointments are required and can be made online by visiting
RedCrossBlood.org and entering sponsor code “sghsys” in the search bar, or call
800-RED-CROSS (800-733-2767).
The Health System is experiencing low units of all blood types and particularly
the “O” blood types. If you are able, please consider donating.
Donors can save up to 15 minutes at the blood drive by reading and completing
the RapidPass® pre-donation health history questionnaire. To complete
a RapidPass®, follow the instructions at
RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Red Cross Blood Donor App.
