5 Inland Northwest Blood Center Locations

The Inland Northwest Blood Center (INBC) is a not for profit community blood center and the sole provider of blood and blood products to more than 35 hospitals and medical centers in the Inland Northwest. Since 1945, INBC has been committed to serving patients with state-of-the-art technology and customer service that is second to none. What started out as a small community blood bank has since evolved into a full service center providing blood and related services. Its Donor and Patient Services (DPS) is the largest department consisting of approximately 55 staff members with the primary function being the collection of blood products. The most common donation programs include the Whole Blood Donor Program and Platelet Pheresis Donation Program. Specialized collection services include the Autologous Donor Program, Directed Donor Program, and Specific Patient Donor Program. INBC also saves lives by providing services to support transplantation medicine in the Inland Northwest. The Inland Northwest Blood Center affiliates with many organizations such as the American Association of Blood Banks (AABB), Blood Systems, Inc. (BSI), National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) and the American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics (ASHI). These affiliations help ensure that state of the art transfusion and transplantation medicine are available for the patients in the service region. Since 1945 INBC has provided blood and related services to a population of nearly one million people.
