NURSING IS HARD WORK. BUT IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE.

At BioLife, nursing can be a challenging, yet fulfilling career. Nursing careers at BioLife are different from many other nursing careers. Here, our Plasma Center Nurses screen and advise donors to ensure they are in good health to donate plasma. In turn, that plasma is used to create lifesaving and life-sustaining therapies received by hundreds of thousands of people with rare and complex diseases.

As a Plasma Center Nurse, you get to know our donors while working in a modern, fast-paced, yet laid-back environment. You’ll work alongside friendly teammates who share your dedication to saving lives, and be a part of a supportive, fun culture. You can build a lasting career with us and there are opportunities to advance to management.

Nursing doesn’t have to be hard work—at BioLife, it can be a career you love.
