St. Joseph's Hospital to expand COVID-19 testing hours

BUCKHANNON, WV - St. Joseph’s Hospital is expanding COVID-19 testing hours in response to increased infection rates. 

Testing is now available seven days a week; Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

There are two types of testing. The free state testing does not require a physician’s order and you will receive your results in approximately three to five business days. If you need results more quickly, a provider’s order is required.

Patients are asked to go directly to the trailer and not enter the hospital. 

If you have questions about COVID-19, call St. Joseph’s Hospital Nurse Triage Line, Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at 304-473-2161. For more information on testing sites, go to the Free COVID-19 Testing tab at www.dhhr.wv.gov/COVID-19 .
