    I used to love going here. The service is still great but corporate gurus have gotten rid of all…read morethe staff except a handful of good hard workers. They are working them to the grind expecting the output of a full staff. The lines are long. The staff are pulling two jobs at a time. Screening and sticking. It's. Not right. Someone in the states needs to buy those guys out to help care for the current staff then add more. People don't have time to wait 3 hours to get paid 65.00 I miss the big bonuses when we were paid 95 for being faithful donators.

    Came here on Tuesday as a first time donor. Most of the staff were extremely rude, and lacked any…read morekind of enthusiasm. They had one kiosk open and it barely worked. They had to restick me because my left arm wasn't flowing as fast and kept tripping the machine. When they restuck me on the opposite arm, it hurt really bad. I told them I didn't want to do it anymore due to the pain. It took them 10 mins to get the needle out of my arm. At this point my body was starting to shake and I was on the verge of passing out. It is now 2 days after the donation, I have a huge bruise, my bicep is swollen, and it hurts to extend my arm. When I called them today to tell them my experience, they answered and immediately hung up. On the second time I called, they answered, did not put me on hold, so I was privy to a conversation that was not completely professional. After my 56 deferral is over, I will not be coming to this location again to donate plasma

    My first visit to donating plasma was a very long process, as it is for every new donor. It will…read moretake about 2hrs, so prepare for that. During the 1st visit, one will have to watch an 18m video on what plasma is, what the process is like when donating, before, during, and after, different techniques you can use so that your blood won't clot the line, how the blood will be returned back to the body, etc. you will be taken into a room where, you scan your fingerprint to serve as your identity each time you visit. In this room, you will also tell the tech all locations of tattoos and body piercings. SN: if you have had a tattoo, a touch up on a tattoo, or body piercing within 4months, you will be deferred! You will then sit in the waiting area until you are called to answer 63 short questions about your health and medication use. Once that is done, you head over to the first line so that vitals can be taken. Once you pass, you will then go in another line labeled DONOR FLOOR. You'll wait until someone yells "Next" and proceed onto the Donor floor where there's rows and rows of curved chairs meant to have your legs elevated. Chairs are wiped down before sitting. When donating they will tell you to pump your fist to get the blood flowing. Now once I sat and the needle was in, I saw this woman who was flapping her legs up and down like Chucky . At first, I didn't know why she was doing it. I just thought she was being childish and impatient (at least that's what it looked like to me lol). It wasn't until my second visit (which took about 35m max) that I saw a man doing the same thing except his legs were going faster than the previous woman. Before you know it, his container was already filled with plasma, so I started doing the same thing. I was in and out of the donor floor within 32m! The ones who weren't pumping their fist and flapping their feet like Chucky were staying there 1hr minimum easyyyy. Staff are respectful, clean establishment, and they take great care of you from beginning to end. * You can only donate up to two times in a 7day period. New donors receive a higher incentive than return donors (must donate 5xs within your first 30days). As of June 8, 2024, new donors receive $100 for the first three donations and $75 for the last two donations within a 30day period.

I had a little difficulty locating the area. I blame the gps and human error. But, that's why I left early enough incase I ran into problems. Once I found the location I was a little more at ease. The area is a little industrial. But, anywhere you go never let your guard down. Our instructor, Shaun/Sean/Shawn (not sure how he spells it) was kind, knowledgeable and very personable. He did well at informing us what to expect and how to go about the process. He was patient as we went through the process. I enjoy the laughter he would bring along through your the time. Certainly eased any nerves for anyone if they had anyone. I always get a little excited when I have to re certify for first aid, and CPR. I always call into the Red Cross number on the website. They issue a military discount. Anyone whom I have ever spoken to has always been extremely helpful and knowledgeable on any information provided. This time so signed up for two more classes, anaphylaxis and blood borne pathogens. I have done everything and enjoyed the online portion of the classes they have. I think I will look up more classes to do in my spare time. The subjects are well worth it.
