Description

Do you know why your blood donation makes such a difference? It’s because Community Blood Center of the Ozarks (CBCO) is the sole non-profit blood, platelet and plasma provider for all Northwest Health hospitals and more than 40 other hospitals in the Ozarks. You can make a difference on July 28 during the Northwest Medical Center – Springdale blood drive from 12 p.m.-5 p.m. in the CBCO Bloodmobile. Walk-ins are always welcome, but appointments are strongly encouraged to help manage donor flow. To reserve a time, visit cbco.org/donate-blood. To be eligible to give blood, you must weigh at least 110 pounds, be in good health and present a valid photo ID. Before the blood drive, donors are asked to take a few steps to ensure that donations operate smoothly on the day of the drive: 1. Drink plenty of water or juice the night and morning before you donate. 2. Eat a well-balanced meal around 2-3 hours before giving. 3. Bring your photo identification: This is now required for all donors.
