Eastern Health is working on a plan to make COVID testing more accessible to people without vehicles.

Many have reported being told to find a ride or take cab to their appointment.

But CEO David Diamond acknowledged Monday that hasn’t been ending well.

He says there have been some “awkward” situations upon arrival at the testing site, adding that a plan will be announced soon to prevent more people from “falling through the cracks.”

Diamond noted there has been some testing in homes by paramedics or public health nurses in consultation with individual patients.
