Prescreening Questions
  1. Are you 18 years or older?
  2. Are you having a single baby during this pregnancy (not twins, triplets, etc.)
  3. In the past five years, can you agree that you have not engaged in high-risk behaviors such as illegal drug use or sex in exchange for money or drugs? 


Can you answer “yes” to the questions above? If so you may qualify to donate your baby's umbilical cord blood with HCBB.

If you have had any of the following within the past year, a tattoo, ear or skin piercing, non sterile acupuncture, accidental needle stick, and/or a blood transfusion, please contact us at 983-2265, for further screening.
