Blood drive Feb. 8 in Bowie

Advanced Rehabilitation & Healthcare is hosting a blood drive from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Feb. 8 in its parking lot at 700 U.S. Highway 287 on the Carter BloodCare bus.
To receive more information or to schedule an appointment call Cynthia Hawkins at 872-2283.
Safe and available blood products can mean the difference between life and death for a patient who needs it. Blood transfusions are among the most commonly administered treatments for hospitalized patients.
Whether an individual is fighting the effects of COVID-19, hoping for an immunity boost from convalescent plasma, or requiring a transfusion following surgery, the community blood center is here to help.
To reduce wait times, appointments are encouraged and blood donors can complete the medical questionnaire online on the day of donation, before arriving. Donors and staff are required to wear masks; and surfaces are cleaned between each donor.
Carter BloodCare continues to offer COVID-19 antibody testing on successful donations, for a limited time. Donors can retrieve their results within one to two weeks through a secure portal on the blood center’s website.
Potential blood donors may volunteer beginning at age 16 with parental consent; 17-year-olds may give independently and there is no upper age limit for donating blood. For more information call 1-800-366-2834 or visit carterbloodcare.org.
