Why home collection fits Mohali

• AQI swings in winter: District health advisories recently urged residents to avoid outdoor walks when AQI > 200. At-home sampling reduces exposure for seniors and kids.

   

• PR-7/Airport Road & Aerocity traffic: Growth around Aerocity/IT City adds peak-hour delays; home slots keep fasting intact.

   

• Accuracy starts before testing: In-view labeling, correct tubes, and method-matched transport prevent re-draws and protect trends your doctor tracks. (See GCLP/NABL below.)

   

Pick tests by goal (book smart, not more)

Metabolic basics (6–12 months)
CBC • Fasting Glucose • HbA1c • Lipid Profile — anemia/infection screen, 3-month sugar trend, modifiable heart-risk lipids.

Thyroid & energy
TSH, T3, T4 (± FT3/FT4) • Vitamin D • Vitamin B12 — fatigue, weight change, temperature intolerance.

Organ health essentials
LFT (enzymes/bilirubin) • KFT (urea/creatinine/electrolytes) • Urine Routine — helpful with BP/sugar meds, dehydration, or alcohol.

Nutrients & bones
Iron Studies + Ferritin • Calcium/Magnesium — flags iron-deficiency and mineral gaps.

Fever season (doctor-directed)
Dengue/Malaria/Typhoid panels — we match handling to method; some assays are time-sensitive.

Tip: one morning blood check at home can cover multiple panels in a single visit.

Areas we cover (neighbourhood-first)

Phases 1–11 (3B2/Phase 7 market), Sector 66–71 (Sohana/ISBT-69 belt), Sector 74–82 (Airport Road, IT City side), Sector 59–65 (Industrial Area Phase-8/8B), Kharar corridor (Sunny Enclave/Gillco), Zirakpur-side pockets (subject to slot availability). Enter your pincode in the booking calendar to see the earliest blood sample collection from the home slot.

For clinician follow-ups (carry your PDF reports):

• Fortis Hospital, Mohali (Phase 8/Sector 62).

   

• Max Super Speciality Hospital (Phase 6, near Civil Hospital).

   

• Ivy Hospital (Sector 71).

   

• Civil Hospital, Phase 6 (District SAS Nagar).
  

How home collection works (zero guesswork)

1. Online blood test booking — choose tests or a Full Body Health Check Mohali bundle; pick a slot; add address.

    

2. ID & in-view labeling — we verify ID and label tubes in your presence (name/DOB/time) per ICMR GCLP 2021.

    

3. Sterile draw — single-use vacutainers/needles; hand hygiene; skin antisepsis.

    

4. Sealed transport — primary-secondary-outer packaging with time/temperature log; 2–8 °C cold-chain only when the method requires (no blanket chilling).

    

5. Testing & delivery — partner labs run ISO 15189 systems under NABL 112A; secure PDFs typically in 24–48 hours.
   
   

Fasting & preparation (evidence-based)

60-sec checklist: short-sleeved shirt • past reports/prescription • share medicines, pregnancy, bleeding issues • sit and rest 10–15 minutes pre-draw.

Quality & compliance your doctor expects

• NABL / ISO 15189 — Medical testing aligned to ISO 15189:2022 in India via NABL-112A; reports carry lab identifiers.

   

• ICMR GCLP (2021) — Robust pre-analytical controls: ID, correct tubes, in-view labeling, mixing, and logged time/temperature to cut re-draws.

   

• Biomedical Waste — Colour-coded segregation and authorized disposal at home per BMW Rules 2016 and CPCB 2018 guidance.
  
  

Local insight (keep your numbers clean)

• High-AQI mornings? Book an early indoor slot; Mohali’s health dept recently advised avoiding outdoor walks when AQI surges.

   

• Airport Road works & Aerocity growth can stretch commutes—home draws protect fasting and reduce delays.

   

• Industrial Area Phase-8/8B pickups follow sealed-packaging SOPs for quick lab accessioning.

   

Field Note (composite, Mohali SOP-aligned)

A Phase 7 / 3B2 family booked CBC + FBS + HbA1c + Lipid + TSH at 7:10 AM. Tubes labeled in view; serum moved with coolant; time/temperature logged; PDF in 24 h. The clinician tweaked diet and set a 12-week HbA1c repeat. No re-draws—because ID, tube mix, and transport were exact (GCLP in action).
