The actual blood donation takes 10-15 minutes. A trained Red Cross professional will be at your side all the way. We'll cleanse an area over the front of your arm at the elbow. In about 10 minutes when we've removed about one pint of blood, you're finished. Now you can relax and enjoy our refreshments.
Most people feel fine when they give blood and afterward.
You'll be given a phone number to call if you have any questions or concerns.
