After a half hour drive. This is the ONLY Plasma Donation place I have been rejected from; and it will be the last time I even attempt to donate because of it. I was informed "albuterol" cannot be in your system due to NEW rules. That is not possible for someone with asthma depending on the severity; but to be informed only after waiting that substantial amount of time.. is absolutely ridiculous and a waste of time.

One Blood has a new location. Located in the same shopping center as Luisa's and Beyond Amazing…read moreDonuts, nice to see a new space that is still convenient to me to donate whole blood or platelets. The plus about this new office is that there are windows to see out (to the parking lot). The previous donor room was an interior room so the only things to really look at were the screens that everyone had to decide to watch the same thing. Looks like each platelet station has their own entertainment. Staffers are still great and friendly, some of them are adjusting to the new office and where all the supplies are kept. The layout of the office is not as spread out, but is a more efficient space- less walking between the history/interview rooms and the donor room. Check in is easy- make an appointment online or on site...further check in questions are done on iPads and you are ready to go. Vitals are taken in the history room and then you go donate. Always nice to know the blood is kept local and you are always thanked for donation. It gets used in the area and helps the community.

I originally called a different location in Charlotte to find out what I needed to donate. The…read morewoman on the phone gave me incomplete information, and I drove 45 minutes to donate, only to be turned away because of their mistake. The woman at the desk was extremely rude and unprofessional. So the next day, I went to THIS location on Reagan Drive. I was honestly impressed. The woman at the front desk was professional, and as I interacted with her more throughout my visit, she became more and more pleasant. The facility was very clean and well organized. The bathrooms were very clean and well kept. Every person I dealt with there was friendly, happy, and helpful. The entire process took me 3 hours. But there are televisions to watch if you get bored. I took a book, and found that the atmosphere was quiet enough that I could enjoy reading it. The customers were pleasant, and stuck to the rules. The only rule breaking that I saw was a woman holding a cigarette, and the staff was very quick to ask her to put it away. They really seem to care about maintaining a place of quality. The medical staff that drew my plasma explained everything very well. They were pleasant and checked on me often. The ONLY complaint, if you can even call it that, was that my husband was turned away due to a history of asthma. If he'd had an inhaler with him, it wouldn't have been a problem. Telling people ahead of the 3 hour wait (before the physical) of requirements like that would save a lot of time. If you are looking to donate in the Charlotte area, I recommend this facility over the others.

First off shout outs to Jaydah, Asia, Jaza, Whitney and Telle! They always provided me with…read moreexcellent service the way it's supposed to be when dealing with the public. Great work ladies .... On another note, this place is terrible, no sense of urgency, when in the chair donating you're intentionally ignored, I sat for 1 hr when scheduling an appointment for 8am, wasn't busy at all I wasn't acknowledged while ppl were talking and having a good time etc. eventually I left before I could even get stuck. Another time a lady was taking other ppl down from machine that finished before me and when she got to me it's like she deliberately ignored me and made it clear with her attitude that she didn't want to take me down. Another staff ended up taking me down then she came back around, after passing me up several times. I didnt let it bother me, but when you have ppl in your organization acting like this, it's bad for business. This specific location lacks structure and leadership, try another location or go to another organization. Bad attitudes as well, whatever is going on outside of work that's bothering you, that should stay at the door or if you're not happy then find another job or something. I may donate here one more week then I'm definitely going to Octapharma. And they play with ppls money!! Hope you all get it together, be blessed

I have made at least a dozen donations at this location. Overall, my experiences have been good. I…read morehave had a couple issues (high return pressure, no flow) that caused my donation process to be cut short - but I still got paid, and I appreciate that. All phlebotomists are not created equal. It makes a difference who sticks you. Over time you would learn which phlebotomists will increase your chances of a seamless process. I don't know their names, but there are at least four who really seem to know what they're doing. The one thing that I would recommend is more professionalism among the workers while on the donor floor. I have witnessed conversations where workers have used explicit language within hearing distance of donors. Not everyone wants to hear that. There have even been "debates" between staff members and supervisors. Try to keep those more private. The banter between regular donors and workers can be entertaining though. I often get a good laugh. When you're in a pinch for cash, this is not a bad place to try. My initial visit took no more than 2 hours. My donation process never takes more than 2 hours start-to-finish. I don't know if other plasma centers pay more, but I like this one because it is nearest to me, and my wait times to get screened are usually just a few minutes.
