Due to decreasing testing numbers, St. Luke curbside COVID testing services have ended. COVID testing for pre-op and travel-related clearance, or for those solely looking for a COVID test, will be available via appointment at the Ronan Clinic, Monday through Friday (call 676-3600) or on Saturday and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on a walk-in basis at Convenient Care. If you suspect you may have COVID and would like to be seen by a provider, you can come to Convenient Care on weekdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. or on weekends from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

St. Luke is pleased to see that things are changing for the better, largely thanks to the strong numbers of community members choosing to get vaccinated! As we navigate the ever-changing COVID landscape, we appreciate your patience

Visitor Information

Visit Your Loved Ones

The health and safety of our patients and visitors is a top priority at St. Luke Community Healthcare. We understand how important the support of loved ones and friends is to patients during their hospital stay. At the same time, COVID-19 requires us to adjust our visitation policy temporarily.

We continue to implement vigorous policies and procedures to address COVID-19 and are following all government recommendations as well. If you have questions about our current visitation policy, please ask a member of the patient’s healthcare team. Thank you for taking the time to understand and adhere to these policies to help us keep our patients, families, visitors, and staff protected and healthy during this time.
