As far as blood donation locations go, this place is A-OK. It's only open on Mondays from around…read more2:00 - 6:30 and Saturdays from 7:30 - 11:30 a.m. When you enter the front door, you will need to take the elevator downstairs; donation center is on the right. For all you "double red" donators, you should call ahead to see if the machine is going to be there on the day that you want to give. I was talking to one of the employees the last time I donated and it sounds like it's hard to predict when that option will be available. For those of you yelping blood donation options, I hope this was useful.

Absolutely awful. Freezing out and they did not open at 7 am because of some kind of business. Well…read moreI'm sorry but your business needs to be done before or after your open. People depend on you to get warm and give blood and get in and out. NOT wait all day to get in way past the time it was supposed to open...bad business.

There's a nice seating area, large restroom areas, a drink machine, and snack machine which are really nice. If you have deep veins and wanna get sticked right, there's a lady named nicknamed Red who knows how to do it without hurting you. I've never had an issue with this place and I prefer it over CSL plasma. It's important to have seating areas because some of us have health issues or just wanna sit because it's comfortable or we're tired or sore from walking.

Well, on the 2nd time, Chuck does it again and screws my arm up AGAIN and the SAME girl removes the needle and puts the bp cuff by my right arm and this time I told her, NOPE, not doing this again. You arent bruising BOTH arms again. Because of this, I got deferred for like 2 months which isnt a big deal because I have no intention of ever returning. Im not going to be used as their pin cushion anymore. No thanks!

This place was decent back in early 2024. The staff used to be careful with your veins, even if the…read morewait times were horrendous. However, the quality of care has plummeted. The staff has become increasingly incompetent, with inexperienced technicians who jab your arm blindly. When they fail to get a proper flow, they simply blame it on the donor having 'bad veins.' I returned today after recovering from the flu, only to have two inexperienced techs repeatedly probe my vein. Even when the machine alerted them of a poor flow, their only solution was to jab me further. I eventually had to refuse when they tried to move to my left arm. To make matters worse, they seem to have changed their pay structure. Compensation used to be for your time, but now it seems to be based solely on the volume collected. Last year, a technician blew my vein and caused a severe hematoma (see attached pictures). You're better off doing DoorDash than letting these 'pretend' technicians play with your health.

This is the worst plasma donation place in Champaign IL. They talk way more than they work. There…read moresystem is so messed up. It takes you hours to get through the line. There is not one person at this location that give a damn about their job. There are long periods between screens because they lazy person sitting down have to hard of a job. They need to fire to management again and start over. I would not recommend this place to a test animal. It really is this bad. I do not recommend this place to even try. Very bad business control in here. They do what they want when they want and don't care about the donors.

They are extremely rude here. They assume the worst about people and speak to patients as if they…read moreare being bad on purpose. It was my first time today and I made many mistakes because orders were only mumbled at me, and I was scolded through the whole process. I even teared up at one point. I was not treated well until the vitals screening, where I used some big words and mentioned being in college. Then there was a complete 180. These people are classist to be honest. They don't understand that many people from all walks of life come here in their hour of need, desperate for any money. The last thing this client base needs is to be made out to be unintelligent or "bad" for not understanding a process they have never been through. Shame! I will only be back out of desperation
