BOOK AN APPOINTMENT

Since March 2020, all blood, plasma and platelet donations at blood drives, GLOBULE Centres and PLASMAVIE Lounges are by appointment only.

During the pandemic, anyone who accompanies you must also donate blood. You cannot come to a collection site with a child or someone who is not a donor.

Héma-Québec has implemented new procedures to manage traffic at its collection sites. We ask that you arrive no more than 5 minutes before your scheduled appointment.

If you booked your appointment using the form on the website, by email or by phone
You can cancel or change your appointment by notifying us in writing at igive@hema-quebec.qc.ca or by calling 1-800-343-7264.

If you booked your appointment using our online appointment tool
You can cancel or change your appointment directly on JeDonne, on the “My appointments” page.

No, you can cancel or change your appointment anytime. However, we recommend that you notify us as soon as possible about any change so that we can quickly reschedule you for a time that is more convenient.

Yes, you can book more than one appointment at a time.

To book a series of appointments on a regular basis, call 1-800-343-7264 or book them with an agent directly at the GLOBULE Centre or PLASMAVIE Lounge of your choice.

It is also possible to book multiple appointments via our online appointment tool, but you must book one appointment after another. You must fill out your profile on JeDonne first.

Consult the Frequently asked questions about the online appointment tool. If you are still experiencing problems booking an appointment, call our Client-Donor Services at 1-800-343-7264.
