They rudely let me know that was last month. I probably would have stayed but especially the male didnt want to be bothered. I consider myself their customer and should have been treated accordingly. Just not a very welcoming place!

They were 40 minutes late taking me in, and then when I had left my photo id, not 5 minutes away, they refused to let me go grab it. I waited 40 minutes for an appointment I had scheduled, and they were unwilling to give me 5 minutes to grab my photo ID.

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.

It is huge, efficient, clean, organized, and filled with happy-seeming employees who are eager to let me, the first timer, know each step of the way how it works. I came in, no appointment, but prepared because of their website to have ready my social security card, my gov issued ID, and a utility bill proving my address. I got my veins checked, watched a video of the ins and outs, answered 65 questions at a private kiosk to vette my donating status, got weighed, blood pressure taken, finger pricked. Even an annual physical done (all clothes on). Whew! Then I was deemed donor worthy and got to donate. If you are already a platelets donor you will be one-up on the process for the most part with some differences. Apheresis (they say smaller needle) bit takes less time. That part took me about 30 minutes. Unlike platelet giving where they give you a warm blanket, you can bring your own jacket or blanket here. Every single staff member, and there were many I interacted with, were cordial, professional, and just plain nice. Oh. And you get paid not for your plasma but for your time. Yeah. I'm onboard.
