The nurses in the back are very professional and know their stuff. No one likes to be poked. Let's face it that's why most people won't even try. These guys are great!!! The last time I was there I hardly felt a thing. I've only almost passed out once (my fault for not eating prior) and they were quick to take care of me.

I love the monthly updates via email and promotional incentives for donors. I have been at this for @ least 13yrs now and have met many great people and nurses.

If you would like to set up a monthly blood drive for your support! I have many family members who suffer from cancer and I have found out I am a great universal match for plasma and platelets donations, so I usually get messages or emails to come in.

Many great employees at Kedplasma. Most are very professional and friendly…read more I will give a 5 star rating when some things get fixed. My wife didn't get to use the 50,000 points she saved. Two times she tried buying Domin#es Pizza with her Kedpoints. The email code never went to her email. I seen it in person. I watched how she did it. Everything she did was correct. She tried contacting the center and no would help. That's not good. Secondly, their A/C system is messed up. So they brought in portable A/C units. And after having around 40 to 50 donors enter the building waiting around for hours, told them to leave. Some of us have to ride 6 to 8 hours of public buses to get there. Again, 95% of the staff are great (I know most of them pretty well, they are awesome!) but the few staff members that are indecisive was what caused the problems. Everyone makes mistakes but don't make donors pay out of their pockets with all their time, gas money, time off work, public transportation, missing appointments and other engagements they could have been doing. They make a lot of money from plasma. If they can correct these things then I will upgrade to a 5 star! Why? Other than a couple issues they would be a premium place to go and definitely recommend after they fix these issues.

Please visit your donation center where a staff member can assist you. I figured it was my protein level since that happens approximately every 5-6 months because of long term donation. I figured it was time to give a sample. I inquired at the screening station and was taken to a room and was advised my blood came back positive for HIV. I know that is not correct since I just had blood work done last month with my primary care physician and am HIV negative as of 5-8-26. I attached those results. Now I am deferred for life. I went right from there to get an HIV test at my pcp's office. I am not sexually active so I know I am not positive. If it does come back positive, it would be from the plasma center. I have witnessed several employees not change their gloves in between sticking donors. I even said something to Savannah, the former center director, about employees not changing their gloves. She told me it is not required but she prefers it. She said it is only required if the employee's gloves are visibily soiled. It is possible they don't see the blood on their gloves by not checking closely. My advice is to watch the employees closely and ask them to change their gloves if they don't after sticking other donors. I did ask one of the employees to change his gloves about 3 to 4 months ago. He told me he is not required to but will because I asked him to. I will provide an update on my review when I get the latest results back. If it is positive, then it is from the plasma center.

First time I have ever in Florida…read more I just want to say that everyone should donate blood, you're not only doing something to save a person's life but you get treated like a princess (or prince) when you are doing it. They give you soda and snacks, free t-shirt and whatever else they have free available at the time. I received a free ticket to the strawberry festival. The person who drew my blood was absolutely amazing older woman. We ended up talking about prostitutes in Portland, OR at one point. Great conversation by the way! After giving blood I started to feel light headed and getting a cold sweat, nearly blacked out. (It tends to happen with me because the blood takes FOREVER to get out of me and especially when I haven't donated in awhile, so it probably wont happen to you). Once they noticed it, they were right on top of it with a wet cloth on my forehead and neck. They brought down my chair so I was lying down and held the sprite for me to drink it and got me a rice crispies treat until it went away. This was the best place to give blood I have been to so far! ADORED it. Everyone go donate NOW!
