Versiti Blood Center of Illinois is dedicated to saving lives and improving health through blood donation and related services. Located in Tinley Park, IL, our center is committed to providing a welcoming and efficient experience for all donors. We offer various types of blood donation opportunities, ensuring that each donation has a significant impact on patients in need.
Our Services:
1. Whole Blood Donation:
The most common type of blood donation, ideal for first-time donors. The process typically takes about an hour, and donors are eligible to donate six times a year.
2. Double Red Cell Donation:
This method allows you to donate twice the amount of red blood cells while donating half as often. It’s particularly beneficial for transfusion recipients and emergency room patients.
3. Platelet Donation:
Critical for cancer patients, premature babies, and others in need, donating platelets takes about two hours, but you can donate up to 24 times a year.

This summer, Versiti has partnered with Blood Centers of America and Abbott to offer an immersive, zen-like Mixed Reality experience using HoloLens 2 technology to enhance your donation experience.

"Went and donated whole blood today. I have been there before. The phylbotomis that I had needs to go back to training. She spoke without moving her mouth,everytime I asked her to repeat her request. When seated she was told by the girl that checked my info and blood work told her right arm is good to donate. This woman did my left arm, figured ok she must see a vein, OMG I have never had such horrible pain ever! She called someone over, checked it said it was a little off on vein,she tried doing something with this needle in me,I saw stars. First girl took it out and off and said,your done or do you want to try right arm? I chose to try right arm second girl got the vein,put it in and first one continued on. When it was complete,I held gauze on opening, it was bleeding all over, girl said put your arm up a little,I told her you never said it ,all of a sudden I had burning in my arm she said,apply pressure and raise arm straight up. She came over a bit later,put a black elastic around my are and said leave it on and mumbled again, I said for 1 hr and she said no 3 to 4 hours!She said your done and walked away. No thank you or anything. Doubt I will ever go back there. To bad I will find someplace else to donate. D.Simon"
"I've been donating regularly at the Tinley Park location, and it's always been a great experience. Today, I wanted to give a special shout-out to Bailee. I recently had the pleasure of donating with her, and she made the whole process enjoyable. Bailee is exactly the kind of person you'd want providing customer service - she's friendly, personable, and genuinely kind. I'll definitely keep coming back to the Tinley Park location!"
"I had a great experience, Bailee & Lety make you feel so comfortable!!!"
"I was at the Tinley Park location today. Everyone there made me feel comfortable and confident with my donation. I do not do well with needles or blood, but they were very understanding and made it easy and painless on me."
