Register now for the July 31 blood drive at Methodist Fremont Health

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 Wednesday, July 31.

The blood drive will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the bloodmobile parked in the Health Park Plaza/cancer center 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 MFH.

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
