Please note that there is no donation deferral for receiving a Covid-19 or
Influenza vaccine. As long as you are feeling healthy and well, we encourage you
to continue donating. If you are experiencing cold/flu symptoms, please give us
a call at 888-723-7831 to reschedule. You can also email
givebloodSBC@stanford.edu or text 999-777 if you prefer. Remember… the need for
blood never takes a holiday. Thank you for helping local patients this winter!




DID YOU KNOW…?

About every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood.

That means, this many people have needed blood since you arrived here:

Due to lower levels of community infection and in alignment with federal, state
and local guidances and Stanford Medicine policies, as of February 3, 2023, SBC
does not require masking in most donation scenarios. SBC continues to strongly
recommend masking for all donors, team members, visitors and volunteers,
particularly in indoor spaces. There are a few exceptions where a minimum of
procedural (surgical) masking remains mandatory. Learn more at
stanfordbloodcenter.org/donation-faqs.




BLOOD DONATION: HOW IT WORKS


BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT:

 * Always be sure to drink plenty of water before donating blood!
 * Eat an iron-rich meal. Eating enough iron is essential to ensuring that your
   hemoglobin level is right for donating. You can check out some tips on
   getting enough iron here.
 * Bring your donor ID. If you have a donor ID, be sure to bring it with you to
   your appointment. First-time donors or returning donors without a donor ID
   card should bring a valid state-issued photo identification.

Avoid alcohol and fatty foods for 24 hours, and aspirin (if donating platelets)
for 48 hours, before your donation.

Learn More About Eligibility



THE DONATION PROCESS

Congratulations, you made an appointment to donate blood and save lives! So what
happens now? There are four basic steps to every blood donation:

 1. Registration
 2. Medical History
 3. Donation
 4. Rest & Refreshments

Learn More



AFTER YOUR BLOOD DONATION:

 * Always be sure to drink plenty of water to rehydrate.
 * Sit down or lie down if you feel lightheaded or dizzy. Call our post-donation
   callback line at (650) 725-9968 if you feel unwell.
 * Rest and replenish iron. We recommend you take an iron supplement and/or eat
   foods rich in iron combined with a source of vitamin C after your donation.

Avoid alcoholic beverages and vigorous exercise for at least 24 hours after
donating, and be sure to keep that bandage on for a few hours!

Please call our post-donation callback line at (650) 725-9968 immediately if
you:

 * feel that your blood should not be given to a patient;
 * are not sure that your blood is safe;
 * develop a fever within 24 hours after donating;
 * have any illness within two weeks of your donation; or
 * are diagnosed by a physician as having West Nile, dengue, chikungunya, Zika,
   or Ebola virus Infection.
