Important Reminder
From the Texas DSHS Newborn Screening Laboratory
Please carefully consider any impact of the upcoming
Friday, July 4th holiday
DO NOT delay collection or shipment of
newborn screening specimens.
If your facility is unable to arrange specimen shipment on July 4th, please ensure that all dried newborn screening specimens are shipped via courier on Saturday, July 5th.
Newborn Screening Holiday Reminders:
- It is important that submitting facilities are mindful of the time that lapses between specimen collection and shipment.
- Ship dried specimen WITHIN 24 HOURS (preferably via overnight courier). If mail or courier services are unavailable, ship as quickly as possible.
- Quick delivery of specimens is imperative. Some disorders need to be identified, diagnosed and treated as soon as possible to prevent onset of clinical symptoms.
