COVID-19 TESTING POLICY UPDATE

VIRGINIA GARCIA IS CURRENTLY ONLY OFFERING COVID-19 SCREENING IN THEIR CLINICS TO ESTABLISHED PATIENTS AND THOSE WHO WORK AS MIGRANT OR SEASONAL FARMWORKERS.

If you want to be screened for COVID-19 you must first schedule an appointment. If you are a patient or migrant and seasonal farmworker and would like to schedule an appointment at one of our clinics, please contact the clinic nearest you. Please do not come to a clinic without an appointment.

If you are not a Virginia Garcia patient, but would like to become one, please contact Member Services at 503-359-5564, option 3 to establish care. A telehealth visit with a Care Team is required prior to a COVID-19 test.

Free COVID-19 screenings and flu vaccinations are available to the public at our community outreach events taking place around Washington and Yamhill counties.  You do not need to be a patient and no appointment is necessary to receive care at these events.

WHAT'S HAPPENING AT THE WELLNESS CENTER

The Virginia Garcia Cornelius Wellness Center is designed to be a place for all to gather and get healthier together. Your health and the safety of your family is Virginia Garcia’s top priority. Due to documented cases of Coronavirus throughout the area, all wellness activities have been suspended. 

We are in close contact with state and county health agencies and will review re-instating classes in a few weeks.

We apologize for any inconvenience to you and your family.
