As an emergency medical facility, we make seeing emergent clients our priority. While you may come in for a COVID-19 test, we recommend that previously negative repeat test patients contact their primary physician or other resources to perform repetitive or routine testing.
You may qualify for repeat testing at Village Emergency Centers if:
You develop additional or worsening symptoms since the time of initial testing
You have persistent symptoms related to COVID-19
You experience another emergency exposure to COVID-19 that might lead to an emergency medical condition
For those who have tested positive but wish to discontinue quarantining, we do not recommend retesting. Instead, please follow CDC guidelines for ending quarantining. If you require retesting for travel or work-related purposes, we ask that you schedule this through your primary physician. You may also seek community resources for work-return testing.
If you were previously infected with COVID-19 and have recovered, but are now experiencing symptoms again, we recommend making an appointment with a physician. Unless your symptoms are severe and need emergency treatment, you should not come to Village Emergency Centers for repeat testing. It is uncommon that a person contracts COVID-19 more than once, so it is likely that you are suffering from another virus or illness.
