The blood supply used by our patients at Little Company of Mary is continually in short supply. The Little Company of Mary Transfusion Service relies largely upon the American Red Cross of Southern California for its supplies. The Blood Donor Center augments the resources of Little Company of Mary’s Hospitals, which helps to maintain an adequate blood supply for the emergency and chronic transfusion needs of the South Bay Community. This becomes especially vital during the holidays and through the summer months, when supplies from the American Red Cross become critically low.
