  • Operate internal computer systems, including the National Donor Deferral Registry (NDDR) and Cross Donation Check System (CDCS), according to approved guidelines.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and well-stocked work area, including updating supply lot numbers when new lots are introduced.
  • Support the plasmapheresis process by preparing collection machines, monitoring donor comfort, and assisting with disconnection procedures when needed.
  • Participate in center audits by providing accurate records and compliance documentation.
  • Work collaboratively with other staff to meet production goals and maintain a positive donor experience.
  • Answer donor and public inquiries in a courteous and knowledgeable manner, transferring calls as necessary.
