Rapid COVID-19 Assessment Clinic Begins Testing
TO HELP KEEP STAFF AND PATIENTS SAFE DURING THE PANDEMIC Runnymede Healthcare Centre began testing staff members. Using ID NOW™ analyzers, this molecular test detects COVID-19 faster than a regular laboratory-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) COVID-19 test.
Staff appointment times are coordinated by the Runnymede COVID-19 assessment clinic staff, and all employees are encouraged to get tested once a week in order to help keep patients, staff, and families safe and healthy.
