United Blood Services has issued an EMERGENCY CRITICAL APPEAL for O NEGATIVE Blood Type

There is less 1 day’s supply of O Negative blood type on our shelves. The 8 hospitals that we are the sole provider of blood and its products for have a very limited amount on their shelves. If there was an emergency, we would NOT have the blood on hand Donations are needed now.

The lives of patients in local hospitals are depending on donors knowing about this Critical Need!

Donors must be at least 16 years old, weigh at least 110 pounds and be in good health to donate.  Donors between 16 and 22 must meet additional height and weight requirements.  16 year old donors must present a Minor Donor Permit Form signed by a parent or guardian.  The Minor Donor Permit can be found online at http://www.unitedbloodservices.org
