Rapid Testing

Victoria ER 24 Hour Emergency Center now has the capability to perform Rapid COVID-19 Testing. As Coronavirus cases continue to rise, we would like to better serve Victoria, Texas, and the surrounding community by introducing the Sophia SARS Antigen FIA technology to test for COVID-19. This new technology reduces the risk of exposure by diagnosing patients within 15 minutes, allowing for the most optimal development for COVID-19 results by receiving close to real time feedback from the collection of nasal cavity swabs.

Every patient who receives COVID-19 Rapid Testing at Victoria ER will know whether they are positive or negative within 15 minutes of the Sophia SARS Antigen FIA technology running their nasal specimen. Quicker results allow those who are tested to take serious precautions immediately after receiving results, which in turn will help our community to stay COVID-19 safe.

Testing Process at Victoria ER 24 Hour Emergency Center:

• No Appointment is needed to be tested for COVID-19. Please visit us when it is convenient for you and your loved ones as we are open 24 hours a day.
• Upon your arrival to Victoria ER, communicate the reason for your visit to Registration using our contact-free voice system (located to the right of the entrance double doors).
