Services
At
Mercy Occupational Health, we know that a healthy workforce is a
productive workforce. We seek to form a partnership between employer,
employee and insurer and to minimize the risk of work related injuries.
We offer a wide range of services tailored to serve the health needs
of individuals and business communities.
For injury and
non-injury care, professional attention is provided to employees
by our team of occupational health professionals, including board
certified physicians, physician assistants, nurses and therapists.
In addition, we work closely with specialists within the local community
who supply an important link when specialty care is necessary, and
we have close working relationships with several rehabilitation
providers.
When making
decisions that pertain to evaluating and treating the employee,
we also take into consideration our extensive knowledge of the workplace,
the job, the employer's needs, and the overall reduction of risk.
This unique approach enables us to offer a comprehensive focus to
help with injury and non-injury business health services.
