Sturdy Memorial Hospital

Blood Drive Today!

Sturdy Memorial will be holding a Blood Drive in partnership with the Rhode Island Blood Center in the Hospital Auditorium. Each donation you make can treat up to three people and will help alleviate the region’s seasonal blood shortage. While emergencies and disasters capture the attention of our community and prompt people to respond by donating, the need for blood donations is ongoing. Donating regularly is something we can do to ensure blood is always available the instant it is needed, and for people who have cancer, blood disorders, sickle cell anemia, and other illnesses, as well as those who need regular blood transfusions to live.

Why should you check back?

We'll have the latest Attleboro arrest logs.
