Team Atlantic Beach:
We’re on a roll! OneBlood and especially the folks whose lives we are saving (and their families) love us! What a great feeling, right?! The City's next blood drive in the AB City Hall parking lot will be next Friday, Sept. 16, from noon to 5 p.m. All donors will receive a whopping $20 eGift card AND a snazzy cancer-awareness AND a pair of sweet ankle socks (Finally! Right?!) PLUS a wellness checkup including blood pressure, temperature, iron count, pulse and cholesterol screening!
While walk-ins are welcome, we are HIGHLY encouraging appointments right now. Here is the link to sign up: https://donorportal.oneblood.org/donate-now/donation-centers-list-select-time?driveID=1167302
Blood drive checklist
- Safety precautions
- Information on Iron
- Please eat a meal at least two hours prior to donating.
- Please bring photo ID; a photo of your ID on smartphone will suffice.
- Please make sure you give the bus staff your current email address. This is how donors will log into their own personal account to get their screening results.
- Do you have the OneBlood app for smartphones? The app stores the donor’s blood type, donation history, current eligibility status, where to find a donation site and more. The Wellness Center tab is where vitals information from past donations is stored, tracking Iron Count, Cholesterol, Pulse, Blood Pressure and Temperature.
