Houchin Community Blood Bank

You don't get paid to donate blood at Houchin. You can try to donate plasma at one of the Grifols Biomat facilities, they pay you.

Depends on what's in your system, honestly. You do the same question sheet every time, so every time you go is roughly the same. 10 min for the questions, maybe 10-20? min for the draw if you're well hydrated, and 15 min for the rest period. I'm being a bit generous with the times, btw. 25-45 min is what I prepare for.

Hello best to call and speak with a screener. 323-4222, best of luck!

No, besides the stuff you get afterwards which is like coupons and a decent snack selection. Donating is for the good of the community.

No but it helps them schedule donors and you can do the quick check on your phone ahead of time. I had time to go yesterday at 10. Called at 9:10 and they scheduled me at 10. No problem
