Interior Health engages on future Trail lab services

September 11, 2025

Trail Health Centre Laboratory services continue as Interior Health engages with community leaders to review service options in consultation with the Ministry of Health. A decision outlining the long-term model for laboratory services in Trail is expected in early 2026.

Outpatient laboratory services, including specimen collection, are currently available at: 

Trail Health Centre Laboratory 
#308 - 1101 Dewdney Avenue 
Monday through Friday  
8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. 
Book online: www.labonlinebooking.ca 
Call to book: 1-844-870-4756 

LifeLabs Trail Patient Services Centre  
#235-8100 Hwy 3B (Waneta Plaza) 
Monday through Friday 
7 a.m. to 3 p.m. 
Book online: Book a Lab Visit 
Walk-in appointments available 


Urgent and acute laboratory services continue to be available at Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (KBRH) for patients who present to KBRH emergency department, admitted patients, or patients requiring urgent services related to acute procedures (i.e., cancer, renal and pre-surgical patients). Health care providers with patients requiring urgent outpatient laboratory services can direct these patients to the hospital for this testing. 

Interior Health remains committed to providing timely and equitable access to laboratory collection services for both community members and acute care patients. We appreciate the dedication of local leaders and health care partners in supporting this work. Updates will continue to be provided as needed.
