Patients who come in for testing are asked to access the testing site from France Ave N. and 35th Ave N.

North Memorial asks when patients arrive that they call the scheduling hotline at 763-581-CARE to register for testing.

During the test, patients are asked to roll down their car window while a health care professional provides a nasal swab. Results are available between five to seven days after testing.
