When I said I had been overnight in Cape Town 9 weeks ago, I was rejected and told to come back in a few weeks. Today I showed up at the Walmart in Tarpon Springs for my 12:30 appointment and after 20 minutes found out there would be no bus. I got home and learned they had called at 12:32 to tell me the bus would be late and to return between 3 and 6PM. At 3:00 I arrived and was told there was nobody on the bus to do DOUBLE RED so I should make an appointment for another day. That will never happen again. Read less

The only thing I don't…read moreappreciate is waiting in line, waiting to be prepped and having to endure the rudest most disgusting behavior from from fellow donors. The rules are completely ignored and no one says anything. This is a medical facility not a welfare outpost. My donation process should be pleasant, without being subjected to outlandish behavior by other donors. I think the staff needs a security person to protect not only the integrity of the facility but the " welfare" of fellow donors who truly believe in what they are contributing. I don't believe the facility overseers care about the safety of anyone coming there. Its truly a shame because the people that work there believe in what they are doing, it's their careers and they need to be shielded from adverse circumstances to do their job with integrity as well as fellow donors.

BLOOD... We have it, we need it, we can share it…read more Remember those carefree days, as a kid, when blood took on a whole new meaning? Your first bloody nose. A bruised & bloody knee, looking to mom for sympathy. Pricking your finger to become blood brothers/blood sisters. As an adult, we can still become blood brothers/sisters. With a whole lot more people! Sure, we won't get to practice secret handshakes. Or meet in treehouses. But the meaning is more powerful than ever! My girl, I call her my Fav Fab One, we love to give blood. It's the right thing to do. Paying it forward. Plus, you just never know there might come a day when you are on the receiving end of that bag of blood. This month was my birthday. That time of getting high fives, gifts and celebrations. We were visiting the grand opening of a new restaurant in town when we spotted The Big Red Bus sitting in their parking lot. We ran into Michelle inside, who invited us to donate. Without hesitation, we figured we'd eat, then we'd grab a seat, in the bus. If just felt right to give a gift. A gift of blood. We had NO IDEA that giving blood would be SO MUCH FUN! For when we stepped outta the Florida heat and took our seats, we were greeted by the Tag Team of Julio & Nick! These guys should go on tour. Comedy! Action! Even though we were laughing and having a bloody good time, we knew for sure we were in good hands, too. Funny, how you can be totally professional while being absolutely endearing. That's the atmosphere we were in. Oh, us and one other donor, I'll call her Paige. Thankfully, we all were on the same 'page' so NO ONE was offended or upended. Giving blood. Feeling good. Having fun. And even some parting gifts as their way of saying Thanks! It truly was a 'gifted' experience.

I was given a questionnaire to fill out, and then we exchanged the form with a tablet to answer more health questions. My blood pressure was taken, and my iron count was taken. We walked into the donation area, where I sat in a donation chair, and the donation routine began to take my blood. After about 8-10 minutes, I was finished and got up and left the facility. The technician was friendly and was very good at inserting the donation needle into my arm. There was some informal conversation, and it was a very nice experience. I have been here many times before, and I will return when I can donate again. I've been donating blood since 1969 and feel I am giving life to people who need this to survive. Feel Good about yourself and give blood. One Blood has great employees working there.

Got to spin for prizes on your second donation of the week and the amount reimbursed went up over time. Several months ago they were taken over by grifoils and it's gone down hill ever since this happened and they have reduced the reimbursement from $150 weekly with 2 donations in one week. It went down to $135 weekly and now again to $90 weekly. There must be some type of mismanagement going on They are almost ALWAYS short staffed I have been here when there only one phlebotomist for an entire room full of patients. The people who do the intake and phlebotomists are but I really great but i get the impression they are not treated well. The management seems seem to interested in laughing and joking amongst themselves rather then see what they can do to help their overworked staff. I used to tell everyone what a great place it was and recommended it to MULTIPLE people. One coworker actually did start right when grifoils took over. I feel really bad that I did now especially how I raved about how great it was. I won't recommend it to anyone else because it's hardly worth it anymore. So dissatisfied and disappointed with this new company. If you are thinking about donating I wouldn't bother. They don't appreciate their staff and and CERTAINLY not their donors. I can't post unless I give at least 1 star but I don't even give them that
