Sunnybrook is not equipped to test children for COVID-19
Sunnybrook is not equipped to test children for COVID-19. We are only able to test people who are 16 years of age or older. If a child under 16 requires testing, please bring them to a COVID-19 Assessment Centre at a community hospital, or contact Telehealth Ontario for more information: 1-866-797-0000.
Do I have to make an appointment?
The Sunnybrook COVID-19 Assessment Centre only accepts walk-ins.
What happens when I arrive at the Assessment Centre?
When you arrive at the Assessment Centre you will be assessed by a health-care worker. If you meet testing criteria (i.e. you are 16 years of age or older) a health-care worker will swab your nose in order to obtain a sample to test you for COVID-19. You will also receive information and referral that is specific to your situation.
Please note: There is a tent outside of our Assessment Centre to provide shade to those lining up to access testing. However, during busier periods, there may not be enough space for everyone to safely line up underneath it. On warmer days, please come prepared with water and a source of shade, such as an umbrella.
