Cape Cod Healthcare Announces November Blood Drives |
|
Cape Cod Healthcare Announces November Blood Drives Cape Cod Hospital and Falmouth Hospital are in urgent need of blood donations – especially type O Negative. Numerous blood drives are being held across Cape Cod in November to benefit Cape Cod Healthcare (CCHC). Cape Cod and Falmouth hospitals must have at least one week’s worth of blood on hand at all times. Since each unit collected or purchased only lasts 42 days, it is a constant challenge to maintain sufficient supply. All the blood collected at Cape Cod Healthcare blood drives stays on Cape Cod to help our families, friends and neighbors. Donors to CCHC blood drives in November will receive either a Speedway or Stop & Shop gift card. The Nicholas G. Xiarhos Blood Donor Center inside Cape Cod Hospital is open by appointment only from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Appointments are required at all blood drives. To make an appointment for the Nicholas G. Xiarhos Blood Donor Center, please call us at 508-862-5663. To make an appointment at an upcoming blood drive, please visit the Blood Donor Portal: https://srt.capecodhealth.org/donorportal/ November 2022 CCHC Blood Drives • November 1: 11 a.m. – 5 p.m., Harwich Police Department, 183 Sisson Road, Harwich • November 3: 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., Falmouth Hospital – Burwell Conference Room, 100 Ter Heun Drive, Falmouth • November 7: 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., Orleans/Eastham Elk Lodge, 10 McKoy Road, Eastham • November 8: 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., Northside United Methodist Church, 701 Airline Road, Brewster • November 9: 11:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m., Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, 311 Service Road, Sandwich • November 10: 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., Federated Church of Orleans, 162 Main St., Orleans
