Blood Bank

As an emergency hospital, we save lives. Sometimes in order to do this, we need to transfuse blood products. Our program is designed to help keep blood products available to meet the increasing needs of our hospital and surrounding hospitals. There is a nationwide blood product shortage, and being able to help our patients is becoming harder and harder through commercial blood banks alone.
