In Focus: Rockland

Thanks, Pat

January

We’re coming to the end of National Blood Donor Month. As a blood recipient, I want to thank Pat Hefferman and all those others who have for years rolled up their sleeves and given blood. Hefferman, seen below at yesterday’s celebration of National Blood Donor Month at Good Samaritan Hospital in Suffern, has donated more than 11 gallons of blood over 26 years.

If you can give, contact:

Hudson Valley Blood Services/New York Blood Center at 800-933-2566

Good Samaritan Hospital, 255 Lafayette Ave., Suffern. The hospital runs its own blood bank. The room is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. Walk-in donors are welcome. To make an appointment, call 845-368-5178.
