On-Site TB Testing and Immunity Titers in Rockford, IL
Rockford has three major health systems, a large public school district, and nursing and community college programs, which means many employers and programs with TB screening and immunity record needs. Rockford is about 90 miles from downtown Chicago, so we review each request for timing and group size before confirming an on-site event.

Who needs on-site draws in Rockford
Rockford Public School District 205 is the city's largest employer, followed by UW Health's SwedishAmerican Hospital, Mercyhealth, and OSF HealthCare's OSF Saint Anthony Medical Center. Mercyhealth operates Rockford Memorial Hospital and Javon Bea Hospital-Riverside, which opened in 2019. Rock Valley College, Rockford University, Rockford Career College, and St. Anthony College of Nursing add education and training programs. Aerospace manufacturers such as Collins Aerospace and Woodward are also major employers, and many Rockford employers outside healthcare still require immunity records for specific roles.
Planning the event in Rockford
Because of the distance from our Rolling Meadows base, a Rockford event works best with more notice and a larger group. Tell us how many people need testing, which panels, and what dates are flexible. Health systems here run their own employee-health offices, so the best fit for an outside draw is often a school, a training program, a smaller practice, or a contractor working for one of those organizations. We confirm scheduling and travel before committing to a date.
What this could look like
A Rockford nursing or allied-health program needs titers and TB test results for a full cohort before clinical placements begin. The program coordinator sends the roster and panels, offers several flexible dates, and requests one large on-site window. This is an illustrative planning example, not a claim about a customer or completed project.
What we draw
A TB blood test (QuantiFERON-TB Gold) and titers (MMR, hepatitis B surface antibody, and varicella). We draw what your requisition orders. Read the full explanation on the TB testing and titers page.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a minimum group size for Rockford?
Because of the distance, larger groups and flexible dates are much easier to schedule. Send your headcount and we will review what is practical.
Can a nursing program use this for a whole cohort?
A program can request a draw for its students when it provides the orders and instructions. The requirements themselves are set by the program and its clinical sites.
Do health systems in Rockford use outside draw services?
Many run their own employee health offices. Smaller practices, schools, programs, and contractors around them are the most likely users.
How far in advance should we request a Rockford event?
As early as you can. We will confirm what notice is realistic when we review the request.
Our market focus includes Rockford, Loves Park, Machesney Park, Belvidere, Cherry Valley, and nearby Winnebago County communities. Rockford requests are reviewed individually, and we confirm each address, date, and headcount before scheduling.
