This summer, keep hearts beating. Help people who need a blood transfusion regain their health. It’s possible to plan a donation now for the blood drive organized by Chelsea’s Fire Department, which will be held on Thursday, September 2nd, from 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., at the Meredith Centre located at 23 chemin Cecil in Chelsea. The target for that event is 85 donors.
It’s also necessary to make an appointment before going to a blood drive. You can contact: 1-800-343-7264, or email: igive@hema-quebec.qc.ca, or make an appointment online.
One thousand blood donations are required every day to ensure an optimal reserve level. This is true both in normal circumstances and during a pandemic. Héma-Québec counts on thousands of generous donors to roll up their sleeve during the summer season.
Héma-Québec has everything in place to ensure that donating continues to be a safe experience.
Many measures at all collection sites, including access control at the sites by taking the temperature of donors and volunteers, additional sanitizing measures, and revised logistical organization of the drives in order to respect the distancing measures. See all the measures deployed.
