Laboratory Manager

 
In an effort to accommodate our patients’ and communities needs Memorial Hospital & Manor will be reopening our COVID-19 drive thru services beginning Tuesday October the 27, 2020. Drive thru services will be open on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2pm-3pm and will be located under the breeze way in front of the hospital until further notice. Patients must have a physician/provider order for testing. Drive through services will be utilized for symptomatic patients only. All non-symptomatic patients will be tested inside the hospital in the out-patient lab. Non-symptomatic patients will enter the hospital through the Emergency entrance for screening and then proceed to the front registration to be registered. Non-symptomatic patients will be swabbed in the out-patient laboratory located in the front of the hospital after the registration process is complete.
 
Preoperative (non-symptomatic) patients needing COVID-19 PCR screening will be collected in the outpatient collection area inside the hospital Monday through Friday from 7 am to 2 pm. Patients should enter through the Emergency room entrance for screening. Once screening is complete the patient will go directly to the out-patient lab (in the front of the hospital).
 
We thank you for your support and patience during this transition.
