Laboratory Services

The Laboratory, EKG and EEG personnel at Western Health are dedicated to our clients, patients and medical staff. We strive to give healthcare providers pertinent medical data in a timely, accurate, and meaningful manner, to ensure the best possible care for all patients.

Western Health provides laboratory services in specific divisions such as Procurement (Blood Collection), Pathology, Cytology/Histology, Hematology, Coagulation, Blood Bank, Chemistry, Immunochemistry, Microbiology, EKG, and EEG.

No appointment is necessary for Procurement (Blood Collection) services.
Appointments are required for EKG and EEG services and are booked through a physician’s office.
A requisition from a nurse practitioner or physician is required.
MCP or other provincial healthcare cards must be presented upon registration.

All specimens submitted to the laboratory must have a requisition and the specimen must be labeled with the patients name, MCP # or Healthcare #, as well as date and time of collection.

Laboratory services are available throughout the Western Region at specific sites. Please refer to individual sites for hours of operation and contact information.
