Overview and Services

The Clinical and Pathology Laboratories of San Antonio Community Hospital serve those who are hospitalized, referred as an outpatient by their physician, or receiving home care. The clinical lab, staffed 24 hours a day with state-licensed technologists under the direction of pathologists, works with the Medical Staff and other departments in the diagnosis and treatment of patients through technical analysis of specimens. Our full-service clinical laboratory offers blood bank and pathology capabilities.

Accreditation and Our Team
The College of American Pathologists (CAP), Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO), State of California, and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services accredit the Laboratory under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA).

The Medical Director is certified in both anatomical and clinical pathology. Staff pathologists are board certified by the American Board of Pathology and provide consultation services to referring physicians. Technical personnel performing highly complex testing are licensed by the State of California as clinical laboratory scientists. Personnel drawing blood are certified phlebotomists.

Reaching Out
The Laboratory offers home blood draws for homebound patients. We also perform lab work and electrocardiograms (EKGs) at local skilled nursing facilities to promote continuity of care for patients who are transferred from our Hospital to these facilities. For more information or assistance, please contact our client services staff at (909) 920-4705.

Community Blood Donor Center
The Hospital offers monthly blood drives, alternating between the Hospital campus and Rancho San Antonio Medical Center. In addition, blood donations can be made at our Community Blood Donor Center, which is located in Building 1148, Suite 203. Services are provided by the Blood Bank of San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. The Center is open Thursday from 9:30 am to 7:00 pm and Friday from 7:30 am to 5:00 pm. We are closed Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Patients who wish to schedule an appointment at this facility or to discuss autologous donation (for your own use during an upcoming surgery or other procedure) or direct donation (for a specific patient) may call our Center at (909) 920-0625.
