THE Koblerville Youth Center is the new Covid-19 Community Center, Commonwealth Healthcare Corp. Chief Executive Officer Esther L. Muna said Friday.
“It will be able to provide information, resources, screening for monoclonal antibodies, any information you need, even to find your results, you can basically go to that center… We want to get to you and we want to be more accessible to you, for services that you need to protect your family,” she added.
The community center opens today, Monday, December 20. It is where individuals can obtain their Covid-19 results, get confirmatory testing done, get assessed for monoclonal antibody treatment, and obtain guidance on all Covid-19 matters, including what to do if they’re a close contact of a positive case.
Confirmatory testing is done to confirm a positive result from a Covid-19 test done outside of CHCC.
Individuals requesting test results from the community-based testing hosted at PIC may visit the community center for a printout or call the following numbers: (670) 785-9972, 785-9973, 785-9970, 785-9968, 785-9966.
Individuals identified as positive cases and are seeking Covid-19 monoclonal antibody treatment can be assessed at the community center, and may either receive treatment at the center or be referred to the Alternative Care Site at Kanoa Resort.
The community center will be open seven days a week including holidays, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
In addition, the Governor’s office will deploy Covid Care Teams to provide resources to the residents of Saipan, including, but not limited to, personal protective equipment, such as masks, hand sanitizer, and gloves; food aid; and Covid-19 educational material.
