We would like to express our gratitude to the donors that were able to give blood on Saturday, November 15 at Gulf Harbour Yacht & Country Club. This truly is a lifesaving mission, and it is so important to our hospitals and the community to remember to donate blood.
At Lee Health, donated blood goes to help save the lives of patients at your community-owned hospitals: Lee Memorial Hospital, HealthPark Medical Center, Golisano Children’s Hospital of SW Florida, Gulf Coast Medical Center and Cape Coral Hospital. In addition to the five hospitals, our blood center also services the Level II Trauma Center at Lee Memorial Hospital and the Regional Cancer Center at the Sanctuary.
For the blood drive, we had 36 donors that tried to give blood and 31 units collected! With each unit saving two lives, over 62 lives in our community have been touched by the generosity of your donors.
We appreciate everyone that was able to make it out and give “the gift of life.”
