Any laboratory testing requested on specimens from suspected Ebola patients (e.g. malaria, typhoid fever, or other hemorrhagic fevers) SHOULD NOT be sent to ANY Sacred Heart Health System Laboratory but should be held until results for Ebola testing are confirmed as negative by your State's Laboratory. The State Laboratory recommends minimal contact and laboratory testing.

Please Note: Turn Around Times (TAT) listed on this website are based on Ascension Sacred Heart Pensacola Laboratory. Specimens coming from offsite locations will need to factor in transport/courier time for accurate test TAT.

STAT TAT - 1 hour from receipt in Lab

Routine TAT - 4 hours from receipt in Lab

Specimens for sendout testing must be received in lab by no later than 1pm CST Monday-Friday (excluding weekends & holidays) in order to ensure send out same day.
