Benefits

Lee Memorial Blood Bank

The Benefits Unit can have units of blood donated to you and/or any members of your family. The reason that we are able to offer this service is do in part by our annual blood drives. We are always appreciative of any donations, so that we are able to continue this great service.

Please note: Insurance companies do not pay for blood, because you can donate before a surgery.

Reasons to Donate Blood

Giving Blood is Safe. Donating blood is a safe process. Needles and bags used to collect blood are used only once and discarded, which makes spread of infection to the donor not possible.
Giving Blood is Easy. Following registration, you will answer simple medical history questions and receive a mini-physical. You will then be seated in a comfortable chair, while you donate.
Giving Blood is Fast. The entire life-saving process takes approximately 45 minutes. The actual donation time is only 5-10 minutes.
Giving Blood Saves Lives. Whole blood donations are processed into a variety of blood components. Each donation can save the life of a person - with leukemia, cancer, anemia and those undergoing surgery for illness or injury. Your donation will help ensure an adequate supply for both children and adults who are patients within Lee Memorial Health System.
Giving Blood Helps Your Community. All blood donated stays to help the patients within Lee Memorial Health System.
