Please Donate at an Upcoming HonorHealth Vitalant Blood Drive: vitalant.org/HonorHealth
Our hospital patients need us now more than ever. The blood supply recently dipped to its lowest level in a year at Vitalant, triggering a local and national blood emergency. Eligible donors of all blood types, especially type O, are needed now to schedule an appointment and donate in the days and weeks ahead.
Changes in how people work, live and play since the start of the pandemic created lasting challenges to maintaining an adequate blood supply. As many people continue to work remotely, blood donations at business-hosted blood drives are down by 50% in 2022 from 2019, a decline of 90,000 donations. Overall, the number of people donating with Vitalant has dropped about 20% in the last three years, while patients’ needs remain strong.
“New donors and those who haven’t donated recently are critical to helping end this shortage. Patient needs continue but societal shifts have kept blood donations from rebounding to pre-pandemic levels,” said Cliff Numark, Vitalant senior vice president. “Starting the new year by scheduling a blood donation can make an incredible impact in your community.”
Please donate blood and encourage your family and friends to join you in transforming lives. To make an appointment at any of the HonorHealth blood drives listed below, visit vitalant.org/HonorHealth.
