There is nothing saying you can't bring your children under the ages of 15 which would be helpful. Definitely read your promotional coupon. You're not going to make tons of money donating. After the first month the donation amounts decrease significantly and once you make $600 you will get a tax form because it's considered income. There is a person named Nurse Lewis and he needs more education and instruction on how to be a phlebotomist. His bed side manner wasn't good or bad. Just bland. Once he stuck my vein there was a problem so he had to get someone else so I was stuck a second time. When my donation was over my arm hurt and now I am covered in bruises and my arm still hurts and it been 3 days! There was no concern from him at all.

I've been coming to BioLife to donate plasma for years now, they pay you well for the time that you…read moregive. The staff is always friendly and kind, and most of the time it only takes 2 hours tops to donate. This is a good way to make extra cash and help people who are in need of your plasma due to various health problems. I come to donate because I can make extra money and feel good about the time that I put in. Thank you to all staff for your kindness & genteelness while I'm here.

The check in process is easy and I can do all the paperwork before I arrive so the wait time is minimal before being brought back to donate. I have had very good experiences with all of the people drawing my blood. They are skilled, efficient, friendly and professional. I am usually in and out within 45 minutes. I do wish they had more zero sugar drink options as well as healthy snacks when I am finished. I always want to have a snack but don't want to eat sugary or fatty snacks. Carrots and hummus or string cheese or something like that would be easy to keep in the fridge with the drinks. I love all of the promotions they have and love knowing I am making a difference. Easy parking!

The staff here is every bit as nice, friendly and professional as when I first started here in 2011. One tip - it's my understanding that state employees are allowed 2 or so paid hours to donate blood. If you work it right..say on a Friday .... just sayin'.

This means you'll spend most of your time here waiting in line - not donating - and when you *are* finally seated you'll notice the overwhelmed tech moving at a frantic pace to keep up. This hardly inspires confidence that you are being carefully or safely attended to. Then again, perhaps they're counting on the fact someone desperate enough to be donating plasma doesn't assign much value on their time or safety. Kinda gross.

Also the finger prick was gentle, and my finger wasn't sore the next day like some other places have done. The ladies there were all friendly and approachable when I had any question or concern. They definitely follow the rules to a T. I felt like the care was high quality. I liked that they were willing to stick around and chat with me as my blood drained into the bag, I learned that the fastest donors are done in 4.5 minutes! I usually average 7-9 minutes of needle time. Of course my favorite part are the snacks afterwards. I got some chips, a cookie, and V8 juice.

I think the most I've waited to get checked in has been around 10 minutes. There has only been one Saturday that the disconnect time was longer than expected, but there were a lot of people donating. I wanted to give a shout out to Lorena. She is quick and efficient. Gets you set up and disconnected while making friendly conversation. . Room for improvement would be that broken little camera to scan the app for check in (qt code). That seems to be the main reason for wait times in the early morning because it doesn't work most of the time w/o an employee manually scanning it.

Was kind of…read moreannoyed that I wasn't told that until 2 hours into the process but I understand why they have that policy. I do hate how long the check in screens take. I read so much faster than they let you pick your answer. I was surprised when I got a call last week saying they changed it to 6 months after surgeries. I finally got to donate a few days ago. It takes a few hours the first time you go but it's not that long after the first time. Plus, they have decent compensation and bonuses. My veins have always been small and hard to find but the guy taking care of me was able to. I have bad veins so donating was hard on me and long but I don't blame anyone there. I was happy when one of the less experienced people passed me to someone who was and didn't try to make me their Guinea pig Lmao. I've always had problems with doctors even finding them so it's all good. I plan on going back here because I've heard nothing but bad things about biomat.

I chose this location because it's clean and the staff are generally friendly, and they used to…read morehave chairs available while waiting. That mattered because wait times here can be extremely long--sometimes up to an hour and a half. Recently, they removed all the chairs and now expect people to stand the entire time. That's completely unreasonable. Standing for that long is uncomfortable and honestly unacceptable, especially for a place that knows how long their wait times are. I've asked about it and haven't been given any real explanation. There were no obvious issues with the chairs before, so this change doesn't make sense. This used to be a place I preferred, but this decision has seriously impacted the experience. CSL is closer to me so If they don't bring seating back, I will going there.
