Whether you are an employer or an employee, occupational medicine services can help protect the safety, health and well being of people in your workplace to foster a safe, productive work environment.

For those businesses near the Deerfield Mall in Publix Plaza, the MD Now Urgent Care provides the extensive services you would need to treat non-emergent injuries, as well as receive compliance physicals, pre-employment screenings, and performance evaluations, without the inconvenience of a regular doctor’s visit.

The majority of occupational medicine services are used as pre-screening tools to help employers in the hiring process or as part of certification programs. Employers can avoid the hassle of these pre-screening steps by encouraging their employees to use a fast, one-stop-shopping center like MD Now in Deerfield Beach. Employees can obtain such tests as:

Urgent care centers are also valuable allies in occupational medicine for your current workers. In addition to treating non-emergent primary injuries such as abrasions, cuts, fall injuries and sprains, you can also obtain your annual flu vaccinations. Approximately four to six weeks prior to departure to a foreign location with known disease potential, workers can get the necessary vaccinations their regular physician may not carry, as well as relevant travel information for their area of work.
