    Plan on your first time stay about 3 hours. You check in, then ask you to sit and wait, then they…read morecall you up and ask you your basic questions, have a current ID and a bill to show proof of address. Then they ask you more questions. Then you sit and wait for nurse. Nurse will take you to the back for your physical. She asked me to get on the exam table, which is high for me because I'm short. No stool, no help. They want to see if you can get up there. They cannot help you. Lol, I know I looked hilarious trying to get up there. Oh and remember to have your promo code if you have one. Fortunately the nurse helped me, because I had no idea I needed one and I didn't see it, but I knew about it. The nurse will give you an envelope that has your debit card and instructions. Don't lose the instructions, believe me you will need them. Then when you're done there, you stand in a line with about 10 people in front of you. The medical staff will call you up where they get your weight, blood pressure, heart rate, temperature and check your iron. If you blood pressure, heart rate are abnormal they will allow you to sit and wait for 7-15 min and try it again, like I did. Then they will call you back and make sure you give them a different arm. They always ask you what arm and what finger you want to be pricked. My heart rate was 115, then went down to 101, failed, you get sent home. You could back the next day as a "walk in". Whoa, you mean if you have an appt you have to wait, can you imagine a walk in? Anyway, the trick, don't drink coffee the day of your appt, this will inhibit your iron from being absorbed, thick will cause your iron to be low. When they do your blood pressure make sure your feet are on the foot rest and not dangling, and sit back and relax, otherwise, it will cause your BP or heart to be high. Take a blanket, because it's cold, not a jacket because you're gonna have to take it out anyway when they test you and stick you. Take your own hand squeezer thing, you will need it, they will give you a card with the color of where you need to go. Find an empty bed and just lay down, there's a pillow thing for your arm, put it on the side you want them to use. There's a little cubby at the foot of the bed. The little card they give you, hang it on the machine next to the bed. Make sure you have everything you need to lay there for one hour because once they have you connected you can't get up. You can't take a nap because they put a blood pressure cuff on your arm that will squeeze your arm when it's time for you to start repeatedly pumping your fist, so you need to be awake for that. Lol, before I knew anything I saw this lady in front of pumping her hand so fast it looked like ..... Anyway, you'll see. Another tip, Noemi has a heavy hand. After a while you hear your plasma pouring into the plastic container, you'll see the machine start at zero, you're done once it reaches 1000. I was constantly looking at the machine, the clock and the plasma pouring into the container and then watching everyone pumping their hands so fast and hard. Lol, I chuckled a lot. Did I tell you not to forget to take a blanket or something to keep you warm. After the container is full, your left over blood is returned to your body and if the machine detects you need fluids it will give you fluids automatically. Once you're done, the machine turns green which tells the staff you're done. Now you wait until someone is available to disconnect you. They come and disconnect you, bandage you up, sometimes tightly, which doesn't need to be but oh well, you just want to leave. They give you your colored card back and you put it in a container at the front. Before you walk out your money is in your acct. Voilà Is it worth it, the time, the traffic, yes, if you need the money. Most of the people in there are there for the same thing, they need money and right now. $80, $90, $100 is worth it if you need to pay a bill, gas, groceries, or even just to hold you till your next pay check. Kids are not allowed. The place is clean. Staff wipe after every person, gloves are changed. Drink plenty of water before and after, eat good before you go. You can only go twice a week and have at least one day in between your last appt. That's it.

    they have the worst customer service and the front desk could have told me what i needed and how…read morethey needed it versus making me wait just to tell me they can't take a photo copy of my proof of residency. waste of time especially when i made an appointment and they're putting other's before me who are just walking in with no appointment. i came back and realized why i don't go to this location anymore

    Horrible first experience! Where should I begin? I walked to the front desk to the New Donor sign…read moreand waited 10 minutes before someone helped me. That was AFTER someone actually acknowledged me saying someone would be with me. So the first person who saw me couldn't tell another staff member to help? As I waited I saw an older gentleman who I guess was the person doing the physical exams. When I asked him if someone could help me, he said he didnt know anything and he had two people waiting for him. He went to a room and closed the door. FINALLY, when a young lady came to the desk to help me, it was really obvious she did not want to be there working. I barely understood what she was saying and flew thru the instructions. Such a crappy experience! I immediately left and will not be returning!

    I want to say this location has been great and amazing experience with the staff on the front floor…read moreand donor floor. They are professional as much as keeping the facility clean and adherence to process for each donor to have the best possible experience. Shout out to Deandra/Ariel S./Nathan/Sean/ Giannna/Brittany/Larry/Juan/Rebekka/Kay/Homero/CJ for each one taking time to always make me feel welcome each time I return to donate. I appreciate all the effort they put into making sure that donors are taken care of efficiently.

They gave me needle bruises twice and act like it wasn't their fault. The head Phlebologist is one of the biggest b word I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. Barely legal Skeleton crew operating the building too. Nobody picks up the phone either. I hate everyone in this place. Go anywhere else but here.

    Yes, a plasma facility can usually retest a donor after a false positive result to potentially…read moreallow them to donate again, depending on the specific circumstances and the facility's policies, which often involve a waiting period and additional confirmatory testing to verify the initial positive result was a false positive. National Donor Deferral Registry: A false positive can put a donor on a national list preventing them from donating at participating centers, but if retesting confirms a false positive, they may be able to donate again. Retesting process: If a donor receives a positive result, the facility may require a waiting period before retesting to ensure accuracy. "The FDA revised its guidelines to allow blood centers to do additional work with these donors - for example, by doing additional rounds of retesting - which can eliminate false positive test results and qualify them to give blood again," said Samantha Gomez Ngamsuntikul, the center's associate medical director.Aug 29, 2022 I'm still waiting for them to give me the opportunity for a retest after the waiting period and the false positive I don't need a staff worker to look at me and tell me that they can't help me giving me excuses knowing that they, a co-worker or manager can help me!
