91探花

91探花 Chillicothe will host a community blood drive with the American Red Cross on Tuesday, February 7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Shoemaker Center.

For more information or to make an appointment to donate, call 1-800-RED-CROSS or .

鈥�91探花 Chillicothe is committed to strengthening our community and helping patients in need through blood donations,鈥� said Britney Hamman, Assistant Professor of Instruction in OHIO Chillicothe鈥檚 nursing program. 鈥淭his blood drive is our way of giving staff, colleagues, and neighbors an opportunity to help save lives.鈥�

Blood is a perishable product that can only come from volunteer blood donors. With someone in the U.S. needing blood every two seconds, blood products must be constantly replenished, according to the Red Cross.

鈥淲e urge community members to consider blood donation and to help ensure that patients in local hospitals have a supply of blood ready when the need occurs. There鈥檚 no better feeling than knowing that your blood donation may give someone a second chance at life. Even if you are not able to donate, you can still make an impact in patients鈥� lives by promoting a blood drive or volunteering at a local drive,鈥� said Hamman.

According to the Red Cross, donors with all blood types are needed, especially those with types O negative, A negative and B negative.
