AboutVersiti
What We Do
Our comprehensive services are designed to maximize our impact on the local, national, and international levels, from providing safe, reliable blood products to hospitals to advancing treatments for severe blood disorders.Blood Donation
Versiti collects, tests, and distributes blood and blood products (red blood cells, platelets, platelets, etc.) to hospitals in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Blood donation is essential for surgeries, trauma care, cancer treatment, and managing chronic conditions such as sickle cell disease. We also operate mobile blood drives and community events to make donating as accessible as possible. Our staff ensures that every donation is safe, tested, and ready to meet the needs of patients when they need it most.
Organ & Tissue Donation
Versiti coordinates organ, tissue, and eye donation programs in Wisconsin to give patients a second chance at life and strengthen the donor registry list. These programs involve careful coordination with hospitals and transplant centers. By connecting donors with recipients, we help families turn loss into life-saving hope. Each donation is treated with care and precision to maximize its impact on patients waiting for transplants.
Diagnostic Labs
Versiti Diagnostic Laboratories provide critical testing in transfusion medicine, immunohematology, coagulation, and transplantation, enhancing both patient safety and treatment outcomes. These services help ensure safe blood transfusions, guide treatment decisions, and support hospital operations. Our labs use the latest technologies to deliver fast, accurate results for complex clinical cases. We also collaborate with healthcare providers to interpret test results and offer guidance for patient management.
Biomedical Research
Versiti Blood Research Institute (VBRI) drives innovative research to advance blood health, gene and cell therapy, and personalized medicine. Researchers study conditions such as leukemia, hemophilia, sickle cell disease, and other blood disorders to develop new treatments and find cures. VBRI collaborates with universities, hospitals, and industry partners worldwide to accelerate scientific progress that ultimately moves from the lab to the clinic, improving patient care and outcomes.
