COVID-19
Drive-Through COVID-19 Testing Tent
for Patients with a Physician Order
Davis Hospital provides drive-through COVID-19 testing for patients with a physician order. You will be asked to stay in your vehicle while completing your registration and for the swabbing of your nose. Results will be sent to your physician, typically within 5-7 days depending on test demand. At this time, we are unable to provide testing without a written order from your physician.
Testing Hours: Monday - Friday: 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
The Testing tent is closed on Saturday and Sunday.
The drive-through testing tent is located on the main hospital campus at 1600 W. Antelope Drive in Layton. The tent is on the northeast side of the campus behind the hospital.

Visitor Restrictions
Updated Visitor Restrictions In Effect During COVID-19 Pandemic
Our top priority is always the safety and well-being of our patients, visitors and employees.
As we continue to monitor the developing coronavirus situation, we are revising our visitation policy to protect our community against the spread of respiratory illness, including COVID-19. The following policy is now in place.
All visitors are required to enter through designated areas in the hospital.
All visitors must be at least 18 years of age.
All visitors must be free of any signs of respiratory illness and must not have active COVID-19 or a pending COVID-19 test result.
All visitors must:
- Wash their hands or use alcohol sanitizer before entering and after leaving the facility, as well as during the visit
- Maintain 6-feet social distancing while in the facility
- Wear their own cloth face covering or mask (facility will provide a mask if needed, though masks from home are preferred due to the need to conserve supplies)
For patients who are without suspected or active COVID-19 - Up to two visitors allowed each day*
For patients having outpatient surgery who are without suspected or active COVID-19 – One escort (visitor) allowed*
For patients who are with suspected or active COVID-19 - No visitors are allowed, with the following exceptions**:
- Newborn or neonatal patients may have both parents visit
- Laboring patients may have up to one visitor, depending on current conditions at the facility
- Post-partum patients may have one visitor
- Patients with altered mental status who require a family member for support may have one visitor
- Minors (< 18 years of age) may have one visitor
- Hospice or end-of life patients may have two visitors
*Some units or areas of the facility may either restrict all visitors or limit to only one visitor, depending upon the prevalence of Covid-19, quantities of supplies, and space considerations.
**In some circumstances, visitors may be required to wear protective equipment provided by the facility
Everyone on Steward properties should have a mask on, including patients and visitors.
This new measure has been put in place for your protection, as well as the protection of patients and hospital staff.
We ask for your understanding and appreciate your cooperation in our commitment to keeping our community safe.
What to do if you're sick
Stay home except to get medical care
- Stay home: People who are mildly ill with COVID-19 are able to recover at home. Do not leave, except to get medical care. Do not visit public areas.
- Stay in touch with your doctor. Call before you get medical care. Be sure to get care if you feel worse or you think it is an emergency.
- Avoid public transportation: Avoid using public transportation, ride-sharing, or taxis.
Social Distancing
- As much as possible, you should stay in a specific “sick room” and away from other people in your home. Use a separate bathroom, if available.
- Limit contact with pets & animals: You should restrict contact with pets and other animals, just like you would around other people.
- Although there have not been reports of pets or other animals becoming sick with COVID-19, it is still recommended that people with the virus limit contact with animals until more information is known.
Call Ahead before visiting your doctor
Call ahead: If you have a medical appointment, call your doctor’s office or emergency department, and tell them you have or may have COVID-19. This will help the office protect themselves and other patients.
Monitor your symptoms
- Seek medical attention, but call first: Seek medical care right away if your illness is worsening (for example, if you have difficulty breathing).
- Call your doctor before going in: Before going to the doctor’s office or emergency room, call ahead and tell them your symptoms. They will tell you what to do.
