West Orange Blood and Platelet Drive – Urgent Help is Needed
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the social distancing that was required to slow the spread of infections, there has been a significant drop in blood donations and the nation’s hospitals and blood centers are experiencing a severe blood shortage. Our hospitals rely on the support of individuals to provide much of the blood used to provide lifesaving medical care for patients in need.
We are calling for blood donors of all types, especially type O, the universal blood type, and platelet donors. We ask you to make an appointment to donate and encourage your friends and family to do the same. Schedule an appointment online or call 732-235-8100, ext. 221 or 228.
