Plasma donors needed to ensure patients have the blood products they need 

As the long weekend approaches, plasma donors are needed now to ensure hospitals remain stocked with life-essentials for patients this fall. 

The Lethbridge plasma donor centre currently needs to fill 120 appointments to meet patient needs. 

Cancer patients, accident victims and people with immunodeficiency, autoimmune and neurological disorders rely on blood and plasma donations every day.  

Book now on blood.ca, use the GiveBlood app or call 1 888 236-6283. 

New and returning donors are asked to book and keep their donation appointments. If you’re unable to make it to your appointment, please cancel it so someone can take your place or re-book into the following month.
