Donation and Volunteer Programs at Lake Charles Hospital
Topic Info
In addition to saving lives, donating blood has many advantages—and not just for recipients. Frequent blood donation helps donors stay informed of their cholesterol levels and can also reduce the amount of excess iron in the blood, which may help reduce the risk of heart disease. Jason Conner with United Blood Services, the major non-profit community blood center that provides blood, blood products and other services to Lake Charles Memorial Hospital, talks about finding the hero in you—by donating blood.

For more information about the upcoming blood drives, please call United Blood Services at (337) 593-7367.
