“Saint Clare’s is pleased to support blood drives which offer life-saving support to our community,” said Leslie D. Hirsch, president and chief executive officer at Saint Clare’s Health System. “As a hospital, we offer advanced technology and care, but without the community’s support of blood drives, we would not have access to an important resource in recovery for many patients.”
Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in New Jersey), meet weight and height requirements (110 pounds or more, depending on their height) and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood.
