In honor of Heart Month, Center for Hospice care is hosting a mobile blood drive for their employees and families on February 9th from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm at their Mishawaka Campus in their Ernestine M. Raclin House parking lot. With almost 40 individuals signed up to give blood, they are looking forward to seeing the impact this has in their community and for their community partners and hospitals. Camille Kocsis, Professional Relations Liaison with Center for Hospice Care states, "It was important for us to bring awareness to Heart Month and we are always looking at ways to give back. By our employees and families wanting to give back and give blood, we are able to help facilitate the ability for patients to receive blood products when they need them. Thank you to the South Bend Medical Foundation for helping us make this happen!"
