Blood and blood products are a critical part of everyday medical care including surgeries, emergency trauma care, cancer treatment and much more. Nobody ever anticipates needing blood transfusions. However, every 60 seconds someone in Canada needs blood. In fact, half of all Canadians will either need blood or know someone who will. In Red Deer, up to 1,300 blood donors are needed each month to meet the needs of patients locally. Our donor centre is located at #5, 5020 68 Street and open Tuesday to Saturday.
