Because the symptoms of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) often overlap with other types of respiratory illnesses – such as pneumococcal disease, COVID-19, or the flu –  it can be difficult to figure out the best course of treatment based on symptoms alone. That’s why we offer the Rapid Respiratory Syncytial Virus Test (RSV) to provide you with a quick and efficient way to determine if you have RSV. 

For children and older adults, finding out the cause of their respiratory illness is especially important. The earlier RSV is caught, the better. If you or your child is sick, you can book an appointment for an RSV test today!

Rapid Care has helped you through the COVID Pandemic, and now it’s our job to help you navigate all forms of viruses! If you’re feeling sick, you need to understand what illness you have so you can treat it as quickly and painlessly as possible. To best serve you, we have tests for Flu, RSV, COVID, Strep, and more!

Our RSV tests are quick and easy, and results are posted within 15 minutes. When you get your RSV test, you will be asked to sit in a chair while a registered nurse or certified medical assistant prepares the nasal aspirate. A syringe will be carefully used to push a small amount of a sterile saline solution into your nose. 

Afterwards, another device will apply gentle suction to your nose to collect the sample. Once the sample has been properly collected, it will be run to the lab for proper analysis. You can find your results on the Patient Test Result Portal.
