Drive-through collection site now open at John Hunt Park

The new site is for patients with physician orders only

Huntsville Hospital, Thrive Alabama, and the City of Huntsville are partnering to provide a Drive-Through Specimen Collection Site at John Hunt Park on Friday, March 20 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The site will serve only those individuals who have already been evaluated and have a written physician’s order for COVID-19 testing. No one without a physician’s order will be tested. There are approximately 400 test kits available for the collection site on Friday.

Persons with a physician’s order must enter John Hunt Park from Airport Road onto Jaycee Way. Signage and site attendants will direct traffic once you enter the area. All patients and visitors will remain in their cars for the entire period.

In addition to the physician’s order, please also bring the following items to the Drive-through site:

  • Photo ID/Driver’s License
  • Health insurance card

Persons who do not have a physician’s order have other test options available at Huntsville Hospital’s Fever & Flu Clinic at 120 Governors Drive, in local urgent care centers and at walk-in clinics.

Please understand that no one without a physician’s order will receive COVID-19 testing at the Drive-Through Specimen Collection Site.
