Business Health Services

Workers' compensation program
The purpose of this program is to ensure that drug and alcohol testing is performed appropriately on identified emergency department patients who have been injured on the job. By providing work-related injury care, this program makes this service an excellent choice for providing your health care needs.

Each participating business has a specific instruction sheet attached to the outside of the emergency department chart. The attending physician and/or nurse carries out those instructions to ensure that the proper drug and alcohol testing is performed. Return-to-work instruction sheets are also completed for businesses that require them.

The role of Business Health Services is to check the employee's chart to ensure that all specific instructions have been carried through. A nurse who is available to give specific information if needed then notifies the employer of the employee's visit.

Currently, we have 40 businesses actively participating in this service.
