Temporary delay in blood test results to GP practices

An update to the Laboratory Information Management System used across the region has led to temporary delays in some test results being shared with GP practices.

This means that blood samples taken at GP practices may have taken a little longer than usual to be processed.

The Laboratory Information Management System, which manages pathology test requests from hospital staff and GPs, is now working as normal and any outstanding results are being shared as quickly as possible.

We apologise for any inconvenience.

If you have any questions about results from blood samples taken at your GP practice, please contact your GP practice.
