If you are going for the first. Try to go early so you can get a early appointment. Make sure you eat a good breakfast before going. Have your ID and Social security card with you. It can take up to 2 to 2 and half hours from you schedule time. You will have some paper work to do and then will get your vital taken. After that you will have a physical. Then if you pass everything you will donate.
Eat before you come the new donor process will take up to 2 hours because it's your first time, bring snacks and a small blanket it is very cold in the back where you will be donating!
