Did you know that someone in the United States needs blood every two seconds? A single blood donation can help save up to three lives, supporting patients who rely on transfusions for surgeries, cancer treatment, trauma care, and chronic illnesses.

January is National Blood Donor Month, a time to recognize the generosity of blood donors and raise awareness about the ongoing need for donations, especially during the winter months when supplies often decline. By donating blood, individuals help ensure hospitals have the lifesaving resources needed to care for patients and families when it matters most.

Thank you to all who give the gift of life and make a lasting impact in their communities.

Thank you to our St. Mary’s Hospital infusion team for the compassion and professionalism you bring to every patient encounter.

Our infusion center offers outpatient treatments such as non-chemotherapy infusions like Keytruda, Iron infusions, hydration infusions, B12 injections, antibiotics and blood transfusions. These treatments allow patients to stay out of the hospital and still get the treatments they can't do themselves at home.

Our patients feel at home with our infusion staff, who get to know them well and treat them as family.
