Pomerene Drive-Thru Coronavirus Screening

As we carefully monitor the ongoing developments, public health authority communications and safety information related to the Coronavirus (COVID-19), Pomerene is implementing drive-thru Coronavirus screening beginning March 16, 2020. Details regarding the screening are as follows:

Drive-thru screening will be conducted from 11:00 am – 7:00 pm every day at Pomerene Hospital via a mobile care unit.

• Screenings will be performed by clinical staff with patients remaining in their vehicles
  • Please bring a photo identification and insurance cards
  • Please remain in your vehicle unless instructed otherwise
• If screened patients are recommended for further testing, these patients will be directed to a central location and isolated from other patients for testing to be administered

During these hours, you may experience higher than usual traffic congestion around the hospital. Please use caution when crossing drive-ways and in parking areas.

We are implementing this screening station as a proactive approach for the safety of our employees, patients and community.We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this rapidly evolving and challenging time.
