Manitobans in Selkirk and the surrounding Interlake-Eastern region now have improved access to laboratory and diagnostic services with the opening of a new Dynacare laboratory at the Interlake-Eastern Health Services building, Health, Seniors and Long-Term Care Minister Uzoma Asagwara announced today.
“Improving access to care closer to home means making it easier for Manitobans to get the services they need in their communities,” said Asagwara. “This new laboratory in Selkirk will help connect more patients and families in the Interlake-Eastern region to important diagnostic services in a convenient community setting.”
The new Dynacare lab officially opened on May 21 at the Interlake-Eastern Health Services building located at 100 Easton Dr., Selkirk, next to the Selkirk Regional Health Centre.
The Dynacare lab is a new addition to the Interlake-Eastern Health Services building, which also houses several community health services and clinics.
The site offers blood and urine collection services, Harmony non-invasive prenatal testing and glucose tolerance testing, and is the only Dynacare lab location in Selkirk. Shared Health Diagnostic Services will continue to provide laboratory services for patients at Selkirk Regional Health Centre, giving residents additional options for accessing laboratory services in the community.
The new lab is part of an ongoing collaboration between the Manitoba government, Dynacare, Shared Health and the Interlake-Eastern Regional Health Authority to improve access to community-based diagnostic services and support more integrated care for patients across the region.
The new laboratory will operate Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
