CBC has an immediate need for blood donors to maintain the blood supply as we begin the New Year. CBC is also emphasizing the strategic goals in 2019 of identifying and recruiting new platelet and plasma donors. The monthly CMH Regional Health blood drive offers the opportunity to donate platelets and plasma by appointment.

The CMH Regional Health blood drive takes place every second Wednesday of the month from 12 noon to 6:30 p.m. Donors can park in the visitors’ parking lot and enter through the main entrance on the lower level. Welcome desk volunteers can direct you to the upstairs conference room.
