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.
Removing a unit of whole blood usually takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Apheresis donation (described in the next section called â Types of donation â) may take 2 hours or longer. Once your blood is taken, you will be asked to stay for a short time to make sure you are feeling well.
