Expertise and Responsiveness
Cascade Health’s occupational health providers are board-certified on-the-job injury specialists. With years of training and experience focused specifically on workplace health, they understand how a fast, comprehensive response is crucial to helping people regain normal function after an injury or illness — and to reducing the associated employer costs. Our injury care program has been developed to offer:
Responsive, same-day care for injured employees in most cases.
Transportation from the work site to our clinic through our Mobile Health program.
In-house physical and occupational therapy to get injured employees into a rehabilitation program as quickly as possible.
Coordination of care and clear communication with medical providers, employees, employers and insurance payors to keep everyone up to date on treatment plans and return-to-work status.
An employer portal for easy access to documentation.
Consultations, site visits and supervisor orientations to help businesses develop and implement clear plans for workplace injury prevention and response.
Our knowledgeable, caring occupational health specialists know that getting injured employees back to work as quickly as is safe is best for employees, employers and society. That’s why we champion return-to-work strategies as part of a healthy, comprehensive injury recovery program. The following facts show why:
Returning to work quickly promotes recovery, leads to better health outcomes, reduces economic hardship and improves quality of life for workers.
Retaining a trained worker by providing modified or light duty until they return to full capacity saves employers significant turnover expense and results in higher productivity and a healthier work atmosphere.
Returning people to work benefits everyone by contributing to the tax base and economy, and costing social programs less.
The longer an injured employee is not working, the less likely they are to return to work at all.
We will help you develop safe return-to-work plans that may include suggestions for work modifications, extra supports or light duty for injured employees until they return to full capacity.
