COVID-19 Rapid Result Testing Procedures
1. Pre-register at https://register.txrapidtest.org/
2. Bring a copy of the QR Code on paper or on phone
3. Bring a Texas Driver License/State ID
4. Remain in vehicle at all times. You MUST wear a mask at all times.
You will be provided with a test kit, given specific instructions to follow, and a RHISD Health Team Member will observe and guide you through the self-swab process.
You will be directed to wait in your vehicle (15 minutes) for the results. The entire process, from the collection of the swab to the delivery of the results, will generally take approximately 30 minutes.
How is my sample for testing collected?
While you remain in the vehicle, you will be given a test collection kit and asked to collect a sample of nasal secretions.
This is done by inserting the swab into your nostril approximately 1 inch into the nasal passage (midway) with the most visible drainage or the nostril that is most congested if drainage is not present.
The swab is rotated several times, removed gently and this process is repeated on the other side.
Please note that you will need to administer your own swab or bring someone that can do it for you. If a student is being tested, the parent/guardian will have to administer the test.
