Our health care professionals understand work-related health care and worker’s compensation... that’s what we do, all day, every day! We focus solely on providing health care for business and industry. By communicating directly with employers about the nature, status and prognosis of each patient, employers are no longer kept in the dark about an employee’s workability.

We provide follow-up communication every time we see an employee for a work-related visit. The Occupational Health Clinic integrates with all the specialty medical services on the Avera Queen of Peace campus to provide the medical expertise needed to get an employee back to work safely and efficiently. 

We understand that the employee has a choice in selecting a provider for work-related injury care. We work hard to be the employee’s choice, as well as the company’s preferred provider. We do this by focusing upon:

  • Direct communication with employers
  • Specialized occupational health professionals
  • Return to work emphasis
  • Team approach to injury management
  • Coordinated care from beginning to end
  • Integration with specialty medical services
  • Partnership with Emergency Services for after hours injury care
