We also hold screenings and "Health Fairs" on the job or in the community that can be key in promoting healthy lifestyles.

There is no appointment necessary if coming during routine hours of operation. Appointments may be made for times other than those hours for special tests and circumstances. Patients needing blood draws or other tests must first register with Admissions, located in the hospital's main lobby. To avoid unnecessary delays, please be sure to bring your health care provider's order with the diagnosis and have your insurance card with you.

Patients should be fasting 12-14 hours for lipid profiles or triglyceride testing. If fasting is required we encourage you to drink water to avoid dehydration. (No other beverage is permitted.)
