  Donating plasma helps many people in need. All of the hysteria surrounding the donation of plasma is warrantless and without reason other than the insanity of the people no longer allowed to donate for whatever reason that they are not allowed to donate. FYI-This is a correctly structured grammatical sentence not what the rest of you consider coherency.

  Rating: Comments: Dear Talecris_ Personnel,. I was informed that I have contacted aids through my plasma donation to your compnay. John F**ked Ketchum no, john, you were not told you \_contacted aids through your plasma donation. you don't \_contact\_ aids. you can be exposed to HIV (the virus that causes AIDS. don't be silly. please. the only way to be exposed to HIV in any plasma center is to have unprotected sex in the bathroom or share dirty needles shooting up drugs in the waiting room. thanks for playing. FAIL your comment

  telecris plasma in fridly mn off of mississippi street is a confusing place to go the employee complain about needing new help but the employees they have just stand around doing nothing and everytime they stand around and do nothing it when the manager is not working and when i request the individuals name to file a complaint staff refuse to give it to me ad i think when the are asking for the donor nme an number they should give their name so people will know who helping them or being rude to them, the plasma center is ok just when manager mike is out that place is slow and full of shit. thank you for listening to concern.

  I WOULD FIRST LIKE TO SAY THAT ALL THE NEGATIVE POSTINGS HERE ARE FROM ARROGANT PEOPLE. YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE POLICIES IN PLACE IN ORDER TO RUN CENTERS IN COMPLIANCE WITH FDA AND GERMAN FDA. IT IS DOWN RIGHT IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTRACT AIDS BY DONATING AT THE CENTER.IF YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE RADIUS OF THE CENTER, GO TO ANOTHER CENTER. WHEN FDA AUDITS THE CENTER,WHICH THEY DO EVERY YEAR, AND YOUR CHART IS PULLED, BELIEVE ME THEY WILL ASK WHY YOU ARE DONATING IF YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE RADIUS.WE ARE NOT GOING TO RISK THAT SITUATION JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE BITCHING.GET A DAMN LIFE,IT IS A BUSINESS,AND IT DOES NOT REVOLVE ONLY ON YOU.YES THE CENTERS NEED DONORS,WE NEED YOU TO COME IN,BUT IN THE SAME RESPECT YOU NEED US. AND THE POSTING ABOUT THE GIRLS PMS-ING.BE NICER AND MORE POLITE TO THEM.THEY GET YELLED AT BY MILLIONS OF DONORS ALL DAMN DAY,THE LAST THING THEY NEED IS ANOTHER ONE LIKE YOU TO BE DOWN THEIR THROAT.IF YOU CANT DONATE THERE IS A REASON.LOOK AT THE CENTER HOURS,AND YOUR MED HISTORY. IT DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU,UNDERSTAND THAT.THERE ARE POLICIES THAT WILL BE FOLLOWED AND NEVER BROKEN.THE FASTER YOU UNDERSTAND THE BETTER.THIS PLASMA IS BEING MADE INTO LIFE SAVING MEDICINE.EVERY SINGLE DONATION AND DOCUMENTATION NEEDS TO BE RIGHT THE FIRST TIME,YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT IS LIKE BEHIND THE SCENES.SO F-OFF

  i tried to be a new donor and they sent me away three times. i live 15 miles away and would drive their thinking i could donate that day and then they would send me away. one nurse tells me one thing another nurse tells me another thing. i think that you should not make this so damn complicated! i am trying to do my part and earn some extra cash but telecris has actually cost me money. i would discourage everyone from going there until the women who work the front get their facts straight and stop lying to the donators and stop taking out their pms times on us. telecris can go to hell

  I began donating at Talecris in late February and have found it to be an ideal way to earn extra cash while my husband is laid off. I've never donated plasma prior to this, so I really don't have much to compare Talecris to, but I will say that all staff members have treated me with kindness and respect. Their new center at the 30th ST. plaza is 100% better than the old location on Walnut. The office is beautiful, well organized, and runs much more efficiently. Donors can get in and out quickly. I would encourage anyone suffering financial distress to give Talecris a least a try. It's helped put gas in our cars and food on our table when our bank account was on empty, and plasma donations do help save lives!

  Dear Talecris_ Personnel,. .....I am one of your donors you counted on my donation to be good, DISEASE, ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE FREE.....I am sure, many people who come in there to donate either did drugs or alcohol before donating.....I think that is a fact. I was informed that I have contacted aids through my plasma donation to your compnay. I wanted to thank you for making my situation more complicated. I am out of work, and don't have any benefits.

  Dear Talecris_ Personnel, I was enformed I needed a address update. I provided that update, a postmarked letter within 30 days of the day I brought it in. Now, my new address is 6 miles out of the circle of Talecris......that is bogus.....I am one of your donors you can count on for my donation to be good, DISEASE, ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE FREE.....I am sure, many people who come in there to donate either did drugs or alcohol before donating.....I think that is a fact. Personally, I take it serious to be a positive and upstanding honest citizen. I am a United States Veteran as well, finacially struggling. I wanted to thank you for making my situation more complicated. I am out of work, and don't have any benefits. Because you denied me today, I don't eat today. I ate my last perishable food to fuel my body to donate, keep my blood sugar up and etc......you had 1/3 of the workload in your office, yet, it took you OVER 2HRs to deny me. I saw one of your donors after I left ticked off, he took his $20 and walked into a bar.......good use of that money for sure. Another thing, you had lead staff in there not doing a darn thing but walking around, he could have generated the information given to me, in 10 min......THUS, SAVING ME MY TIME SO I COULD GET BACK OUT AND JOB HUNT!!!! Just after I used your phone to re schedule a appt I had with a Vet. Officer concerning work, you then tell me......I'm tired of you wasting my time.......other people's time too......I also over heard, you were going to send technicians home even after a rush of people came in......What are you doing? Your business is Booming off the charts with so many people out of work in Canton and surrounding areas.......people come in any way they can to donate, get a pitance of cash that may just cover the body's recooperation of donated plasma.........if you get over 1,000 bucks for a 887ml donation, then you should be paying the proven donors atleast 100 bucks per donation......but you dropped the price 5 bucks, to $55 for 2 donations. I'm not happy with you people wasting my time after I bring to you what is needed for me to donate. I can't afford your inconsideration of others. What you, as a professional place of business should have done from the start is......provide complete information on donating......provide a clearly understood map of where prospective donors may live to be a donor, and, of course, WHERE THEY CANNOT LIVE, which disqualifys them from being a donor. Provide that site map from the first inquiry, to save everyone's time. I don't appreciate my time being wasted on such a trivial thing as 6 miles out of the \_radius\_.....6 miles isn't a big distance by car. Someone on foot or horseback, I could see that distance having some merit to be supported as legitimate. Now I can't fuel my car, and, I don't eat today. Oh well, it's just another day at Talecris to the workers, we are the herd you get to pick and choose from.......I can guarantee my donation is good everytime......I don't sleep around to pick up a desease, I don't do drugs, I rarely ever drink as much as a beer. You've made it rough on me for the last time, the loss of my donation is YOUR LOSS.......I'm trying to help myself get by doing this while I look for a decent paying job.......Thanks for the inconvenience.....John F. Ketchum
