I highly recommend going to this Vitalant location. I attempted to make the appointment online…read moreahead of time and ran into a little bit of difficulty so I called and scheduled over the phone. When you arrive the GPS takes you to the side of the building. Go to the main entrance with the big sliding doors. From there go up to the second floor. I give these instructions because I parked on the side and entered into the wrong door at first. Once in the Vitalant suite, it was huge and very clean. I had only been to blood drives in hospitals or work locations in the past. I was so impressed with this setup! Kim and Donna were amazing. I was the only one there donating in my time slot. They were so friendly and took care of me well. Im eligible to donate again in February. Will definitely be coming back to this location. Don't hesitate to schedule and save a life!

I showed up for my 2:15 appointment and was rudely "greeted" by a woman who was clearly mad that I…read morewas there for an appointment when she was ready to leave. Mind you I made an appointment 45 mins prior to arriving and I suppose she was too busy getting ready to leave to be able to see that someone had made an appointment. She took my information and was not at all happy about it, I was as nice as possible because I'm not a rude person but her attitude was nasty and uncalled for. The awesome women that actually collected my blood donation were as nice as could be and seemed happy that I was there and explained everything that was going to happen. Smiles and gratitude from everyone I came in contact with after the "greeter" I would leave 5 stars if it wasn't for the first person.

Donating blood is one of those civic duties I think everyone should commit to if you are able. I…read moreusually donate whole blood but occasionally switch to platelets, plasma or double reds if time permits. Vitalant (previously Central Blood Bank) is spread across the Pittsburgh region and I've donated at many of their centers. The Cranberry location has a wonderful staff and their process is fairly streamlined. I rarely can't find an exact date/time that I'm looking for and I've never had to wait if I have an appointment. Save yourself some time and fill out the donor questionairre at home before you arrive.

If you have to see a nurse Denise, Beth, Irene and others are top notch. The office staff Mandee, Tammy, Jon along with others are great and will not hesitate to help on the donor floor when needed. And the staff on the donor floor is exceptional and knowledgeable about what needs to be done. Jordann, Ray, Stacy, Cheyenne, Carrie, PK Brydii and others make you feel like one of the family. Always smiling while doing their work. There is some joking and laughter amongst all, but above all they are professionals I recommend giving this location a shot if your planning on starting to donate, you will not be disappointed. Allow yourself some time for your first donation, it takes a little longer than the donations that will follow. I enjoy the chance to see everyone and maybe share in a laugh which is needed sometimes after a long day at work, or first thing in the morning. Make sure you hydrate the day before and the day of your donation, this will make your donation faster. Avoid fried food and dairy the day before and the day of because this will slow down your donation time. Steve L.

My workplace was offering CPR/AED and First Aid training and certification through the Red Cross…read more I decided to volunteer as a representative of the company. I honestly didn't realize how expensive these training classes are without the funding from my company. However, they see the benefit in having several employees certified in case of an emergency. The class took up the better part of a day and consisted of classroom training, hands on training IE mouth to mouth resuscitation on the torso "dummies" along with proper procedures on how to operate the AED machines, and some roleplaying with other volunteers. I found the instructor to be incredibly informative and engaging. She certainly maintain a level of competency, and kept the classroom structure flowing from one topic to the next. We covered a lot of ground in those 6 or so hours. Everything from preforming CPR, and all the steps surrounding the act itself, to the proper use of a defibrillator, how to handle a person in shock, breathing emergencies, diabetic emergencies, seizures, strokes, muscle, bone and joint injuries, concussions, environmental emergencies, anaphylactic reactions, chocking procedures, poisoning, burns, and bleedings. I will say after all that I have a new found respect for those in the medical community, and other lay responders. There are many steps to help determining and intervening in an emergency situations but a lot of it comes down to common sense, and observation. I am happy I had the opportunity to take this class and now am knowledgeable of how to react in an emergency situation, I still really hope I never have to! Great class, just wish it was a little more affordable for the classes if you were taking them without financial support.

I have yearly blood work and sometimes extra throughout the year and this is my go to spot. The only reserve I have, which is a big one, is that the older ladies often can't find the veins and will hurt your arm. I know 2 people who said they stop an older lady working here and asked for someone else to do it. It's a nice, clean, fast, and friendly service location but be prepared to be stuck a few extra times if you need blood work.
