Register now for the Oct. 22 blood drive at the 825 Building

Maintaining life-giving supplies of blood is critical for our hospitals, region and nation. That's why Methodist employees are encouraged to participate in a blood drive sponsored by the Nebraska Community Blood Bank on Tuesday, Oct. 22.

The blood drive will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the bloodmobile parked in the 825 Building parking lot. Appointments are recommended.

No fasting is needed. Plan to allow approximately one hour for the donation process. Participation is considered paid time if it occurs during a scheduled work day, and lunch vouchers will be provided to participating employees.

To register for the blood drive, call (402) 486-9414 or go to ncbb.org and use sponsor code NMHS.

For answers to specific questions about your eligibility to donate, or for help registering, call (402) 486-9414.

You are especially encouraged to call if:

• Your iron count may be low
• You have traveled to Mexico in the last year
