3 ways occupational medicine clinics benefit your business
Occupational medicine clinics have been providing comprehensive medical care for employers and employees for decades. They provide services such as work injury care, physical therapy, pre-employment services, travel medicine, etc. Since these clinics offer specialized services, often these facilities tend to have more knowledge and experience dealing with occupational health and how it affects your business. Here are 3 ways occupational medicine clinics benefit your company and make it stronger.
- They are OSHA experts
Occupational medicine technicians are well versed in OSHA’s standards and consistently stay up to date on any regulation changes. Clinics like Nova, who are solely focused on occupational medicine, are knowledgeable about specific industries and understand the importance of keeping your workers healthy and your recordables low. At Nova, all technicians are trained to OSHA’S recommendations and have received new silica training.

- They are cost-effective
A goal for all companies is to reduce costs and save money, especially in healthcare. Nova’s expertise in OSHA’s regulations and their ability to properly identify a recordable event vs first aid treatment can reduce indemnity costs for employers.

Partnering with Nova Medical Centers is a financially smart investment that could save your company thousands in healthcare costs in the long run.
