Texas County Memorial Hospital is hosting a blood drive on Friday, March 21, from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Community Blood Center of the Ozarks (CBCO) will collect blood donations in the Jayson Gentry Community Safe Room on the TCMH campus.
TCMH receives 100 percent of its blood supply from CBCO. All blood collected by CBCO stays in the area and will be utilized by Ozark communities, neighbors, and families.
CBCO serves TCMH and 43 other hospitals in 40 counties. Approximately 250 units of blood are needed each day, and TCMH uses about 400 units each year.
Eligible donors can be anyone 16 years old (requires parental consent for first-time donors) or older who weighs at least 110 pounds and has not been given blood in the last 56 days. All donors must provide identification when registering to donate.
Donors participating in the blood drive will receive a free T-shirt and an Ozarks Adventure Pass. The pass includes free admission to four attractions, including Ripley’s Believe It or Not in Branson, MO, Discovery Center in Springfield, MO, Scott Family Amazeum in Bentonville, AR, and Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge in Eureka Springs, AR. This offer is available only while supplies last.
Appointments are not required; however, strongly encouraged to manage donor flow. To schedule your appointment, call CBCO at 417-227-5006 or go to www.cbco.org/donate-blood.
