Franklin Nursing Home to host blood drive July 8

Roy McCoy roy@robconews.com Robertson County News Franklin Nursing Home-Creative Solutions in Healthcare will host a community blood drive Wednesday, July 8, from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Franklin Nursing Home, 700 North Hearne Street in Franklin. The blood drive will be held in partnership with Gulf Coast Blood. Appointments are preferred, but walk-ins will be welcome. Those interested in donating may contact Tiffany Benham at (979) 446-8700 or use sponsor code FRNK when signing up. Donors are reminded to eat, drink and bring a photo ID before giving blood. Gulf Coast Blood recommends donors eat a hearty meal, drink plenty of fluids and get a good night’s sleep before their donation. Donors may also use the CFL Express Pass on the day of donation to complete their health history interview before arriving, which can help speed up the process. The July drive also includes donor promotions through Gulf Coast Blood. Those who donate between July 1 and July 31 may receive points that can be redeemed for a $25 eGift Card through the Donor Rewards Store. Gulf Coast Blood is also offering free A1c screenings with blood donations through July 31. The A1c test measures average blood sugar levels over the past two to three months and can help identify possible prediabetes or diabetes concerns. Gulf Coast Blood says whole blood donation usually takes less than 10 minutes once the donation begins, though donors should allow time for registration, health screening and recovery. After donating, donors are encouraged to sit for at least 15 minutes, have a snack and drink, and avoid strenuous physical activity for the rest of the day. Franklin Nursing Home is located at 700 North Hearne Street in Franklin. The facility’s main phone number is (979) 828-5152, and its listed email is infofranklinnursing@csnhc.com.
