Beginning in August, Northern Light Mercy Hospital will expand COVID-19 testing to six area locations. Additional details on testing services, locations, and contact information can be found online and below:

Testing for those with COVID-19 symptoms:

  • Gorham – Northern Light Mercy Walk- In Care (Daily, 8 a.m.-8 p.m.)
  • Windham – Northern Light Mercy Walk-In Care (Daily, 10 a.m.-3 p.m.)
  • Westbrook – Respiratory Assessment Clinic (Daily, 8 a.m.-8 p.m.)

  • Portland (Fore River Parkway) – Northern Light Pharmacy (Monday- Friday, 8 a.m.-5:30 p.m. for testing under the State of Maine’s Standing Order)

The success of getting Mainers vaccinated against COVID-19 has led to an overall decrease in demand for testing and has made it possible to move testing services to medical offices and other settings. As a result, the swab and go drive through testing site located on Mercy Hospital’s Fore River Parkway campus closed at the end of July.
