MEDIC is outfitting donors for the next winter chill with hooded sweatshirts though February 16th, 2024 for successful donations. Supplies are limited and all hoodies are first come, first served. Hoodies will not be held for donors.
Appointments can be made online at www.medicblood.org, via the MEDIC app, or by calling 865-524-3074.
MEDIC is the primary blood product provider for 26 hospitals in 23 counties including Blount Memorial, Covenant Health System, East TN Children’s Hospital, Tennova Healthcare, and UT Medical Center.
As a reminder, the blood, platelets, and plasma products on the shelves now are what would be used in a trauma event, and it takes at least three days for donated blood to be processed and ready for distribution. Demand remains high while donations have been low this summer.
