AHN COVID-19 Testing Schedules Released through Saturday, January 30

AHN Caregivers to Host Additional Community Testing Site in Monessen this Wednesday

Pittsburgh, Pa – Allegheny Health Network (AHN) has released its latest covid-19 testing schedules for its facilities through Saturday, January 30.

On Wednesday, January 27, AHN will also host a community testing site in Monessen from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Civic Center (861 Donner Avenue, 15062). Patients are welcome to visit the site via walk up; appointments and physicians’ orders are not required to receive a test.

Patients must be experiencing symptoms associated with covid-19 such as fever, shortness of breath and cough to receive a test across AHN collection sites. While the CDC recommends testing for asymptomatic individuals who may have been exposed to the virus, AHN is taking this measure to best ensure adequate testing supplies are available for those experiencing symptoms and the most vulnerable of patients.

To find asymptomatic public testing sites in the area, please visit the Pennsylvania DOH website
