Cuz i need that type of money while i wait for someone to decided to hire me. I signed up easily through the app. Saw the promo $650 buck for first donators n i got excited for it. I got there with a wave of people expecting the same thing. A las it takes 8 visits to get the 650 whole. The good news is that they pay you in chunks. Instead of waiting for the lump sum. I can understand why this place has low reviews but it wast as rough as other people stated. It is a long process if you are new donor n it looks like way longer if u keep coming back. Theres two lines, i came 1.5 hours earlier thinking i needed to fill paperwork. Nope, they bump me up cuz someone didn't show, the first young miss took me it for picture n recruitment file, second one took my quick vitals. Found out i shrunken 3 inches!! Or their scale is wacked. Eh no biggie. Then i went to the computer to get asked the exact same question over n over again in different ways. Took me 30-45 mins to complete cuz the questions are a bit cray cray. Then i moved to the Medical Madam, that took too long cuz we started chatting each other up lol but she did her obligations fine. She gave me snacks and a pediasure! Yum Listen to my heart, hear my lungs, answer stuff etc. when i got to the plasma machines? The nurses had a hard time getting my veins to cooperate. The second madam also but i still got paid for showing up. So win win lol i will try again later this week. I really want the rest of that $650. They gave me a debit card where i got my money already sent. App looks neat. I recommend you bring a hoodie for the plasma area. Its cold there, eat big meals 1-2 hours before coming. Drink fluids like a fish. I had a pleasant visit, im always positive creature so no matter where i go, i bring joy lol See ya next time

Each time I've donated blood in New Tampa (Walmart parking lot), it's been the staff of the Lakeland Branch who has greeted me, questioned me, taken my blood, & sent me packing w/ a beach towel or shirt, along w/ a gift card. (The current promotion is a beach towel & $45 in gift cards; it ends Aug 31.) If you're in Tampa or Wesley Chapel, finding an open appointment online & reserving the time takes a minute or more. Once you arrive at the big red bus (currently in a mask-- regardless of vaccine status), you'll answer a few oral questions after answering questions on a Tablet. Then you'll be taken to a bed, offered a beverage & snack, & be stuck; I have yet to ever feel more than a non painful pinch. Once the blood has been collected; the needle is removed; & the gauze is attached w/ a wrap, it's time to go. I've used the Lakeland OneBlood mobile unit 4x-- each time in the Walmart parking lot in New Tampa. No parking issues! No long wait! No hassles! Staff has always been friendly; the women have varied each time. Some of the busses are newer & shinier than others, but all have appeared clean. The entire process from reserving an appt time (on-line) to leaving the bus to go home after the donation has always been INCREDIBLY speedy & easy. I'll continue to donate blood every two months regardless of promotion, & I'll continue to rely on this mobile bus unit. OneBlood makes donating simple!

I have the accessibility setting set to flash when I get a text message. I'm hard of hearing and the flash alerts me to a text message. While I was on the chair minding my own business the girl I met at reception came over and was staring at me strangely. I looked up and asked here what was wrong. She accused me of taking a picture of her coworker. I showed her my picture file to prove I did not. She didn't bother to look at the phone and continued staring at me strangely. Then she told me I looked sketchy!!! I immediately told them to disconnect the lines and I wanted to stop donating and leave. Everyone in the place was looking at me like a pervert. I was there trying to do a nice thing and this is the way I was treated because I'm hard of hearing. I'd like someone to call me. I'm so angry over this.

BLOOD... We have it, we need it, we can share it…read more Remember those carefree days, as a kid, when blood took on a whole new meaning? Your first bloody nose. A bruised & bloody knee, looking to mom for sympathy. Pricking your finger to become blood brothers/blood sisters. As an adult, we can still become blood brothers/sisters. With a whole lot more people! Sure, we won't get to practice secret handshakes. Or meet in treehouses. But the meaning is more powerful than ever! My girl, I call her my Fav Fab One, we love to give blood. It's the right thing to do. Paying it forward. Plus, you just never know there might come a day when you are on the receiving end of that bag of blood. This month was my birthday. That time of getting high fives, gifts and celebrations. We were visiting the grand opening of a new restaurant in town when we spotted The Big Red Bus sitting in their parking lot. We ran into Michelle inside, who invited us to donate. Without hesitation, we figured we'd eat, then we'd grab a seat, in the bus. If just felt right to give a gift. A gift of blood. We had NO IDEA that giving blood would be SO MUCH FUN! For when we stepped outta the Florida heat and took our seats, we were greeted by the Tag Team of Julio & Nick! These guys should go on tour. Comedy! Action! Even though we were laughing and having a bloody good time, we knew for sure we were in good hands, too. Funny, how you can be totally professional while being absolutely endearing. That's the atmosphere we were in. Oh, us and one other donor, I'll call her Paige. Thankfully, we all were on the same 'page' so NO ONE was offended or upended. Giving blood. Feeling good. Having fun. And even some parting gifts as their way of saying Thanks! It truly was a 'gifted' experience.

I was given a questionnaire to fill out, and then we exchanged the form with a tablet to answer more health questions. My blood pressure was taken, and my iron count was taken. We walked into the donation area, where I sat in a donation chair, and the donation routine began to take my blood. After about 8-10 minutes, I was finished and got up and left the facility. The technician was friendly and was very good at inserting the donation needle into my arm. There was some informal conversation, and it was a very nice experience. I have been here many times before, and I will return when I can donate again. I've been donating blood since 1969 and feel I am giving life to people who need this to survive. Feel Good about yourself and give blood. One Blood has great employees working there.
