Spectrum Health Offers Opportunities to Donate Blood

Spectrum Health Reed City Hospital will be offering two opportunities to donate blood on Tuesday, November 29th. The Michigan Blood Bus will be in Reed City at Spectrum Health Reed City Hospital, 300 North Patterson Road from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and then in Evart at Spectrum Health Evart Family Practice Clinic, 5991 S. 95th Avenue from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

First time donors at either site are more than welcome.

It takes only about 10 minutes to collect your blood. Don’t wait – give the gift of life this month!
