As of Monday, June 14, Sheridan Memorial Hospital’s Covid-19 testing will be conducted at the hospital’s Urgent Care – located at 1435 Burton Street – one block south and west of the hospital – follow signage to Urgent Care. 

According to SMH leadership, the hospital is conducting an average of 26 tests per day. 

Persons wishing to be tested for Covid-19 do need an appointment and should still call the hospital’s Covid-19 phone number: 307-672-1004. When a staff member calls them back to schedule their appointment, they will help the caller select the most appropriate test for their needs.

When people arrive for their appointment, they should remain in their vehicle and call to let the staff know they are there.  The notification phone number is posted in the Urgent Care parking lot. Covid-19 tests are conducted Monday-Friday.

SMH will discontinue COVID-19 vaccine operations at its Vaccination Clinic at the end of the month.

When the clinic opened in January of this year, the mission was to aid in the administration of vaccinations to as many Sheridan County residents in the shortest amount of time possible to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus. 

Leadership now feels confident the goal has been met. With the decline in scheduled appointments and the availability of vaccines at Sheridan County Public Health and local pharmacys, staff and resources can be utilized in other areas of SMH operations.
