Due to the Coronavirus pandemic there is a critical need for blood and platelets. Eligible and healthy donors are strongly urged to provide lifesaving blood products to patients.

Our Plattsburgh Family Health patients can also give blood right next door to our health center at the Adirondack Regional Blood Center.

As a federally qualified health network we must follow strict federal mandated guidelines on what can – and cannot – be used in a medical setting, especially personal protective equipment (PPE), including masks, gloves, gowns, and goggles. Below are the guidelines on the items we can currently accept.

We are accepting:

• FDA approved face masks
• Full-length isolation gowns that tie in the back and are made of water resisitant material or disposable cloth or latex-free plastic
• Latex-free Tyvek Suits/Overalls that cover full arms
• Single-use, latex-free gloves

We are not accepting:

• Hand-made face masks
• Face Shields

Hudson Headwaters is also not taking volunteers at this time.

It is exceptionally gratifying to witness the outpouring of support from our community during these challenging times, and a heartfelt reminder that we are truly all in this together.
