Schedule an Appointment for a Rapid Test

October 5, 2020

New findings show that rapid test samples provide most accurate results when evaluated within one hour. Previously, hospitals were able to assess samples up to 24 hours after swabbing. Due to this change, the number of rapid tests available in Nome will be more limited. State lab testing will still be available, and rapid tests will be provided as needed.

To make this transition smooth for patients, appointments are recommended. To schedule an appointment for a COVID-19 test at the NSHC hospital testing tent, visit www.picktime.com/NSHC. For patients with symptoms of COVID-19, please contact the Cough & Cold Clinic for an appointment at 443-3333 Monday through Friday, or the Nurse Call Line on the weekend at (844) 58-NURSE (586-8773).

Norton Sound Health Corporation is working hard to ensure that the new procedures will be simple and efficient for our patients.
