They treat me with care, and consideration from the moment I come through the doors. From ensuring your privacy to explaining every step along the way I'm always made to feel comfortable and as if I'm the only client at the time. And they're always verifying that you are the one they are attending to. I've been donating at that center for over a year now and I haven't come across anyone that hasn't treated me anything other than great. And just looking how they interact with each other and other clients it shows that they love what the do. And although I'm moving out of the local area my plan is still to.come back there every 8 weeks to donate. The staff truly Rocks!

I really feel like they care about the donors and will not let you donate if your hematocrit is low. I've been to other places where they will continue to test you until it passes. Not here. Overall, I really enjoy my experience here each time.

The lines are ridiculous, technicians take way too long and are overworked. I waited 10 minutes for a computer, was 10 people back in line and I was already 30 minutes past my appointment.

Meh they're making money like crazy in the plasma so I doubt anyone even cares.

The Red Cross website is one of the best out there. It is easy to make an appointment after gathering your data. I go to NCSD locations;. Carlsbad Mall and Lake San Marcos. The check in process on site is efficient. The site plays different. styles of music to keep things flowing. You complete an intake and prick test to check your blood before being assigned to a table. There is usually a team of 5 to 7 on site. Once you complete intake you are assigned a red cross team member. They are the one to take your blood, it takes approximately 6 minutes to complete. Upon completion of blood being taken, a team member may bring you snacks or guide you to a snack table to replenish; to prevent nausea and dizziness. The Red Cross often has an incentive;; usually a gift card or logo item. I love my beanie from the winter donation and my beach towel from the spring donation. It has been a positive experience from beginning to end. I hope you give blood too. It is a good feeling. #RedCross #DonateBlood #GoodFeeling #SanDiego

Then went on my app for express pass for a long list of questionnaire by doing it saves time. I never make reservations always walk in and I guess lucky to not wait. When I enter Craig the volunteer this tall, friendly good looking man greeted me and was very nice attentive from beginning to the end. Offered drinks snacks and asked how I was. Next Nick the nurse very nice, helpful, informative and friendly. Check how I was doing during process explained procedures and what was happening with the machines. Started with mini physical checked temperature, blood pressure, pricked finger got some blood to check hemoglobin (iron) and weight. Then you lay on reclining bed, the arm that has the needle lays on a warming pad which feels more comfy. Took about 45minutes for the whole process. Then your arm gets taped and informed about what to do afterwards like no lifting, no drinking etc. you also get a paper with more information like who to call incase something bad happens. Then wait 15 minutes before leaving and waiting area theres some snacks and drinks. By the way I been here so many times and all the volunteers and nurse do amazing job. Once again Craig & Nick thank you, appreciate what you guys do, have a nice day! Lastly theres area for kids to wait and watch television. Brought my son before and its ok.

Today I went in I didn't catch her name (older Asian lady ) gave me this huge lecture how they were not a monitoring facility. Which if that's the case I just wasn't aware it was a problem. I understand there is a shortage of blood donors, up till now I always donate every time knowing There is a great need . I just walked out , the lecture did not sit well with me , there could have been a better way for her to handle this . Not sure if I will be returning If anyone at this facility wants to reach out to me and explain in a professional manner . Jose R 909 518 3082

What sets them apart, though, are the big screen televisions in the donation area and the second waiting room. There are always cute or funny animal videos playing, which is great if you forget your cell phone. Another thing that sets them apart from other plasma donation facilities are their waiting rooms. You can actually sit down in a chair and relax while you wait for your name to be called. Other places you just have to stand up and wait in line.
