About the Versiti Blood Center of Illinois
Versiti Blood Center of Illinois, located at 2625 W Jefferson St, Joliet, IL 60435, is a dedicated health facility committed to saving lives through blood donation. Our center is open Monday from 11:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and on weekends from 7:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
We offer various types of blood donations to suit different donors and patient needs. The most common type of blood donation is ideal for first-time donors, taking about one hour per appointment, and can be done up to six times a year. For those looking to make a more significant impact, our double red cell donation allows you to donate half as often but make twice the impact by providing two units of oxygen-rich red blood cells, crucial for transfusion recipients and emergency room patients.
Additionally, we provide opportunities to donate platelets, a precious and perishable component essential for cancer patients, premature babies, and others in critical need. This process takes about two hours, but you can donate platelets up to 24 times a year.
Beyond our donor centers, we organize regular blood drives at schools, workplaces, and other nearby locations. You can easily find a blood drive near you by searching with your zip code or browsing our featured community blood drives.
Volunteers are the backbone of our lifesaving mission, providing invaluable services to our community. Learn more about how you can volunteer and make a difference.

Reviews of Versiti Blood Center of Illinois
"Friendly staff and convenient location. Process was easy and was greeted right away. Nice location. Yummy snacks are always a bonus."
"I love this place! The staff are so friendly, welcoming, and appreciative! They even provide t-shirts from time to time for coming in to donate. When you walk in, you check in at the front desk and fill out a quick health questionnaire. Then, they'll check your blood pressure, heart rate, and hemoglobin (blood) level to make sure you can donate. My blood draw usually takes only 5 minutes! They provide you with a snack and drink afterward, too. It's very clear that the staff really care about their volunteers and take an interest in your life. I couldn't imagine donating anywhere else. I'll definitely be back again and again!"
"After waiting 20 minutes and then doing all the vitals, which included pricking my finger, they told me that there was no way they would be able to get me done in 2 hours from my appointment time. If they are short staffed they should close appointment times online. Not let someone waste a 1/2 hour for nothing. I used to go there regularly and now won’t go there again. They should have been professional and told me this at check in."
"Was my third time here, first two were good, now, I felt that they didn’t really want we there. They’ve tried to find a vein and they couldn’t, poked my arm twice, painful as hell, then some manager guy said that they are done. So no donation was done. Very rude and unprofessional crew. At least this time."
"Angelica A was fantastic! I'm usually very nervous of the whole thing, but she reassured me it would be alright. Showed me exactly where the needle was going and drew the blood without pain. She even let me hold he hand if I got nervous. Very great job!"
