Carter BloodCareDedicated to our Community

We are community
Carter BloodCare is the largest community blood center in Texas.
We are a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) organization: – Licensed by the Food and Drug
Administration– Accredited by the AABB, and– A member of America’s Blood Centers
33
Our philosophy
•Carter BloodCare is guided by the philosophy that
community blood donations should benefit
community patients, and that blood centers must
be responsive to the community that supports
them.
44
What we do
We partner with local volunteer blood donors within north, central and east Texas to provide the gift of life to patients in need.
We collect, process, test, store and distribute blood products to hospitals and healthcare facilities that are located in the communities where we host blood drives.
55
Why we do it
Every 90 seconds someone in the Carter BloodCare service area needs blood.
Daily, 600 to 800 people in our community will need a blood transfusion to survive.
38% of the total population is eligible to give blood at any given time, but less than 4% actually does.
Every pint of blood can help save at least three lives because it can be processed into: red cells, plasma, and platelets.

How blood donors save lives
•Blood is made up of three main components. Each component serves different functions and allows one unit of blood to help several patients.
Red cells – help trauma patients and those undergoing heart bypass or organ transplant surgery.
Plasma – replaces the blood volume lost by a burn victim or the victim of a trauma accident.
Platelets – involved in blood clotting; also critical in the treatment of cancer and leukemia.

Platelets last only 5 days.
