CHILLICOTHE – Adena Health System is expanding the availability of its coronavirus testing to now include curbside service at all Adena Urgent Care locations – Circleville; Chillicothe-Western Ave; Hillsboro and Waverly. Testing also remains available at the System’s COVID-19 Screening Clinic on the campus of Adena Regional Medical Center, located in Chillicothe.
“Testing has opened up beyond the early days of the pandemic, and testing materials are more readily available,” said Dane Black, DO, Adena Medical Director of Urgent Care Services. “We can now test more people across our nine-county service region to help decrease community spread, and to serve more of our patients by keeping care closer to their homes.”
Working under Ohio Department of Health COVID-19 testing guidance, Adena Urgent Care curbside testing will include symptomatic and preoperative patients. Coronavirus testing currently requires a physician’s order, which can be also be obtained through Adena Urgent Care providers. Adena Urgent Care locations can now provide curbside nasal swab screenings for diagnosis, and a curbside blood draw screening for antibody determination.
If someone believes they have symptoms, or have been exposed to a person confirmed to have COVID-19, they should first call Adena’s COVID-19 Screening Hotline at 740-542-SAFE (7233). If testing for Coronavirus is recommended, patients will receive guidance and next steps.
