NEDERLAND — Those who turned out and donated blood Tuesday at Mid Jefferson Extended Care Hospital in Nederland were treated to lunch from Dylan’s Bar and Grill and a T-shirt.
Clinical Liaison and LVN Melanie Montijo noted the community has been hit hard with the pandemic and most recently the record breaking cold temperatures and winter storm.
This week’s blood drive helped LifeShare, which is in need of donations.
Hospitals supplied by LifeShare Blood Center locations in Southeast Texas and Louisiana are experiencing critically low blood supply levels due to hazardous weather conditions putting scheduled and emergency surgeries and procedures in jeopardy of not being performed, or cancelled.
