I was in line 2 days ago for nearly 2 hours and when I finally got up to the front, they told me I needed a physical. Why didn't you mention this before or have it alert me on the app I downloaded? I left. What a waste of a day. While I was in line, the one and only person behind the counter told a client where everyone in line could hear, that every single day about 2 or 3 people call out. Hire. Better. People. It's simple. Management was walking around doing nothing looking at the line grow and grow and didn't even offer to get behind the counter and help or send someone else from the main room to help. It was very upsetting. Everyone has their reasons for donating, and mine is personal. This location has gone so downhill quickly it has taken the fun and enjoyment out of me giving back.

AVOID THE CSL PLASMA LOCATION IN HALTOM CITY AT ALL COSTS…read more The operational incompetence, lack of leadership, and absolute disregard for donor safety and medical boundaries at this facility are a massive liability. During my scheduled donation, the machine repeatedly triggered "No Flow" draw alerts. Recognizing an impending vasovagal syncopal response, I explicitly withdrew all medical consent for needle adjustments and requested that a supervisor or senior phlebotomist take over the procedure to restick my other arm. This safety request was completely ignored by the floor staff. Since my original phlebotomist had abandoned the floor I had to request help my another floor phlebotomist to escalate the issue, but they returned to state that the senior phlebotomist refused to intervene because they "didn't want to step on anyone's toes" denying my request. Upon her return the original technician then proceeded to engage in blind, aggressive needle manipulation ("vein fishing") inside my tissue against my explicit verbal commands and physical protests, resulting in acute trauma to my perivascular nerves and a severe vasovagal crisis with tunnel vision. The medical negligence here is systemic. The donor immediately adjacent to me was subjected to identical technical incompetence by the same phlebotomist, causing her to suffer a severe syncopal crisis and vomit on the floor. Rather than deploying emergency protocols, the Medical Screening Assistant (MSA) subjected me to a hostile interrogation while I was losing consciousness, mockingly downplaying my cerebral hypoxia as "floaters" until I had to articulate my own syncopal response. Even mockingly stating that "You just expect us to roll out the red carpet for you" after requesting basic first aid for a medical emergency that their staff caused. She was also called to the floor shortly after when the adjacent donor next to me had a severe vasovagal reaction that induced vomiting and when the donor reported a sudden wave of heat, this same MSA mockingly told her, "Well, you have a hoodie on." To make matters worse, the MSA tried to cover up an incomplete blood return cycle by falsely claiming my red blood cells were returned--a physical impossibility since the left arm never achieved flow--meaning my cells were discarded as waste to evade federal FDA deferral regulations. The MSA then explicitly stated my severe reaction was "non reportable" in an attempt to mask donor injury caused by a rogue phlebotomist. They completely lost control of the floor, even allowing unauthorized civilians onto the donation floor when the mother of the adjacent donor rushed onto the donation floor to check on her daughter after seeing her have a severe adverse event reaction from the lobby/screening area. DO NOT DONATE HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR HEALTH, BIOLIFE PLASMA IS A SHORT DRIVE AWAY AND HAS HIGHER NEW DONOR PAYOUT. A formal consumer safety complaint has been filed with the FDA Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), and a formal Spoliation of Evidence Notice has been electronically issued to corporate legal to lock down all machine data logs and CCTV video loops from this date. Unedited audio/video recording evidence of the staff's verbal admissions has been securely archived for federal investigators. Unsafe, unethical, and completely unprofessional. The rogue phlebotomist and patronizing MSA are a danger to public health and a corporate liability.
