Blood donors are needed every day to sustain a safe and adequate supply of blood and blood products. Blood is an essential part of emergency preparedness. We have implemented additional precautionary measures to ensure a safe donation environment, and we are looking for donors!
There will be a blood drive on Tuesday, July 21, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Hub, formerly the Senior Center.
Blood donations will be made by appointment only. Please schedule an appointment by calling Lexy at (218) 591-3000 or emailing: Lexy.Land@innovativeblood.org.
Giving blood is safe and simple
It’s more important than ever for donors and the public to know that donating blood is still a safe, easy process that is an essential part of community preparedness, even as we are encouraged to stay home as much as possible. We have implemented additional precautionary measures to ensure a safe donation environment including:
We are restricting blood drive access to only donors and essential staff.
Our staff have been provided face masks and are practicing social distancing.
We are asking donors to wear a mask; we do have a limited supply of masks, if you don’t have one.
We are checking temperatures of staff and donors upon arrival.
We are using hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes to ensure staff and donor safety.
We are asking donors to self-screen before coming in to donate.
We are spacing out appointments and holding drives inside to allow for social distancing.
We are only accepting blood donations by appointment.
