Due to the risk of inclement weather caused by Hurricane Ida the COVID-19 drive-through vaccination/testing center at Coordinated Health, 3100 Emrick Blvd. Bethlehem, will adjust its schedule for Wednesday, September 1, 2021. All vaccination appointments will be held indoors and testing will be suspended for the day to protect LVHN staff and patients. Any patients with suspected COVID-19 infections will be referred to ExpressCare or Care-on-Demand for testing.
“We recognized that our drive-through testing and vaccination center is an important resource for residents with mobility issues,” says Lamont McClure. “As soon as the weather clears, we anticipate returning to our scheduled hours of operation.”
The drive-through center for COVID-19 vaccinations and testing is located at 3100 Emrick Blvd. Bethlehem. Standard hours of operation are Monday/Wednesday/Friday from 10:00AM – 2:00PM and Tuesday/Thursday from 2:00PM – 6:00PM. Vaccinations are by appointment only and are only available for Northampton County residents ages twelve-and-over. Patients can choose from all three vaccines: Pfizer, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson. Pfizer and Moderna require two shots administered three weeks apart, Johnson & Johnson requires only one dose.
To make an appointment for a vaccine at the COVID-19 testing site use one of the following options:
- Schedule at the LVHN website at org/appointments.
- Schedule on the MyLVHN patient portal, at org.
- Call 833-584-6283 (833-LVHN-CVD). The COVID-19 Vaccine Hotline is open Monday-Friday 8:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
A Physician’s order is not required for a COVID-19 test. The drive-through site is open to everyone, but only residents of Northampton County will have the cost of testing covered by the County if they do not have health coverage. All testing will be through HNL Lab Medicine unless insurance requires an alternate laboratory. Participants should bring a photo ID and their insurance card, if they have one, with them to the testing site.
