At Park Regency we strive to provide the best possible service. With that in mind, soon it will no longer be necessary to leave the building to have blood drawn. Starting in January we will have a phlebotomist from Horizon lab come here to complete the lab orders we receive from the many doctors that treat out residents. Horizon lab will then fax the results to the ordering physician's office.
Getting up, getting dressed, and braving the weather just for a blood test will be a thing of the past. One day a week (most likely on Thursdays), a lab technician will visit each resident who has an order for a blood draw in the resident's apartment. Not only do you get to stay in the comfort of your own home, this service does not cost you extra. Horizon lab will bill you insurance just like before.
They will also be able to collect urine and stool samples, as well as culture orders (throat, wound, etc.) on site. Horizon lab will provide us with the supplies, and our registered nurse will acquire the sample for pick-up.
Please call Rebecca at the front desk if you have questions.
