The donation itself goes from 45 min to 2 hours depending on your hydration level and the size of your vein. But just be ready to spend 2 hours within the premises of the center.
I believe they open at normal time and close at 10am.

One last question does giving plasma hurt or any after affects? I walk in signed up and left out because I was nervous.
Aboriginal Native American Tribe | Oct 1, 2019
SN M | Oct 1, 2019
The initial pinch from the donation needle stings a bit but if done properly the rest of the experience is painless. If you're nervous, I suggest requesting someone who has experience.
Other than that, make sure you eat and are well hydrated before and after and you should be fine.
If I signed up for the one in Norfolk but never donated can I go to the one in Portsmouth?
Aboriginal Native American Tribe | Oct 1, 2019
Nicole Farrow | Oct 1, 2019
You can, just go to the one in Portsmouth and let them know. They may be able to transfer your info.
Can you just walk in? Also I'm visiting from the Richmond area. Can I still donate in the Norfolk location?
Akelia Gordon | Oct 1, 2018
sab_10 | Oct 1, 2018
The policies fluctuate. It's good to have an appointment. They're more concerned about cross donating than about what city you're from.
How long does it take for donors
Sharkcity M3ko | Oct 1, 2018
Helen Ward | Oct 1, 2018
It depends on if it's your first time and how busy they are when you get there. Typically about 2 hours, give or take, regardless. New donors take longer to get processed, but then they give you an express pass for the actual donation part that puts you to the front of the line. After your first visit, you answer the same questions on a computer screen each time, stand in line to get screened, then get taken back to the donation area. If they're understaffed or have a long line or both, it can take longer. But 2 hours is typical.
110-149 lbs $50 for the first 5 times, regular is $15 for 1st and 2nd time of the week
150-400 $75 for the 1st and 5th time, 2-4 $50, regular $25 first time of the week, $50 for second time of the week
New donors only: Under 149 lbs you get $30.00 the first two donations and above 150 lbs you get $75 for the 1st and 5th donations. Then $50.00 for the 2nd thru the 4th donations.

What is required to donate
Derrell White | Oct 1, 2018
Melissa Ann | Oct 1, 2018
Proper forms of identification in a current address to start I think an ID and a social security card will work I also think that you need a bill and proof of current residency plus you do have to take a physical which really isn't too hard just to make sure that you are able to donate that's a pretty easy process and I would say 99.9% of people able to donate
My personal experience as being a new donor was slightly over 3 hours. Keep in mind, that is $25 per hour, if you are 150 lbs or more. Everything there after will take 1-1.5 hours. Drink lots of H2O, to speed up the flow.
They do plasma donations... if new $75 first visit $50 the next 3 visits and $75 on the fifth. Other than that it's $25 the first time in a week $45 the second time as long as you can donate 825ml or more
How long will I be there on my first visit? And is there a specific time I should go.
