You will need to apply for your initial Michigan teacherâs license and your endorsement online through Michiganâs Online Educator Certification System. This will involve creating an account and keeping track of your Michigan Education Information Systems (MEIS) account number.
Donating platelets or double red cells can take longer. The blood donation procedure itself takes about 10 to 12 minutes. But it also takes time to fill out the donor registration form, have a donor history/mini-medical exam, and rest and enjoy refreshments following a donation.
The plasma from your donation is replaced within about 24 hours. Red cells need about four to six weeks for complete replacement. Thatâs why at least eight weeks are required between whole blood donations. The highest priorities of the Red Cross are the safety of the blood supply and our blood donors.
