Taylorville Memorial Hospital Laboratory Manager Phyllis Jachino Discusses COVID-19 Testing

There is a brand new state of the art lab at Taylorville Memorial Hospital and COVID-19 has kept them pretty busy over the last few months. Phyllis Jachino is the Manager of Labratory Services at TMH and she said that COVID-19 tests are somewhat hard to come by.

 

 

If the patient doesn’t meet the Illinois Department of Public Health criteria for a COVID-19 test, they can also send it to Memorial Medical Center.

 

 

There have been a lot of changes at the labratory due to COVID-19 according to Jachino. The majority of the changes deal with the front line staff that deal with patients on a regular basis.

 

 

Phyllis Jachino with Taylorville Memorial Hospital was a guest on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
