Sampling centre COVID-19 information

The FN HK (Hradec Králové Teaching Hospital) sampling centres are located in the rear part of the FN HK premises and operate as a drive – in, with access along the Třebešská road. Signs for pedestrians are provided from the main porter´s lodge as well as from the gate for pedestrians.

All the sampling centres are open daily from 7:30 a. m. till 6:30 p. m.  (7:30 – 18:30).

Private payers are still obliged to make an appointment for sampling through a separate booking system. The centre recommends that all patients indicated by a physician make an appointment, too. Those who want to make an appointment will find a reference to the booking system on the FN HK web sites.

The booking system capacity is limited.  In case its capacity is full, we recommend you choose a later date or contact another sampling centre.

It is essential to enter a correct phone number and e-mail for further communication when making the booking.

After the booking, you will receive a confirmation e-mail; the given appointment time is indicative only, it prevents accumulation of people who come for the sampling. In case you would not be able to come, be so kind and cancel the booking using the link in the confirmation e-mail.

It is necessary not to eat, drink, smoke or use mouthwash, nasal drops, chewing gum for at least 30 minutes before collection. For the sampling proper, come wearing a nose and mouth protective mask and prepare your identity card.

The road around the Faculty of Military Health Care is bidirectional as far as the beginning of the fenced grassy area behind the building only.

Attention, there is a No Parking sign, which the applicants must observe!

From the sign of the No Parking zone end towards the FN (the Hospital), the  Třebešská Street is unidirectional  and it leads to the sampling centres.  

There is a coordination person at the beginning of the one-way road who directs the applicants to the relevant sampling centres  so that the traffic would remain continuous all the time. We ask you to follow the coordination person´s instructions and to respect all the road signs.

We draw attention urgently to the fact that under any circumstances it is essential to leave sufficient space for the Emergency Medical Services cars exit!

The specimen is collected using a long swab that is inserted into the nose (nasopharyngeal swab).

Private payers shall pay the amount of CZK 1756, - for sampling prior to the sampling proper; it can be paid by a payment card only.

After the sampling, the exit is marked along the FN internal roads with free exit through the traffic lodge.

A certificate with test results in the Czech and English language is sent by an e-mail in an electronic form to private payers only; the code for the document opening will be sent by a SMS message, no later than within 48 hours (electronic signature is located under the red seal icon).

The electronically signed certificate will be sent to the applicant´s email. Should you need it in a  printed form, visit kindly your closest post office that offers the CzechPoint services. Proceed according to the instructions contained in the link below the text.
