Vision
The vision of U.S. HealthWorks is to redefine and provide innovative occupational health services that ensure continuous improvement to American Productivity.

Mission
Our mission is to add value to each customer interaction, and therefore our responsibility to clearly understand the needs of the customer we serve and to deliver services that address their needs and expectations. It is our intent to grow from serving all of our customers better than other providers of like services.

We are occupational health experts, and we deliver services expediently and with close communication with our client contacts. Because we shine in these services, we are seeking people who have superior customer service and/or clinical skills to join our growing team. We offer our employees an arena to excel in their fields of expertise while providing them a professional work environment. Our equipment is state-of-the-art, and our exemplary services are unmatched.

Occupational Medicine
U.S. HealthWorks is a full service occupational health provider that offers employers an approach to the specialty of occupational health care that includes preventive services, pre-placement and post-offer services, injury and illness diagnosis and treatment, physical therapy and return–to-work programs.


Physical Therapy / Rehabilitation
At U.S. HealthWorks, Physical Therapy is a vital element in occupational medicine. Since treating work-related injuries and providing physical therapy often go hand in hand, we believe that therapists and physicians working together in the same office is the best approach to managing a patient’s medical treatment and disability management. From injury care to modified duty programs, our approach delivers better care and reduced cost of treatment.


Worksite Occupational Medicine
U.S. HealthWorks understands that for many employers, a solution to cost-effective health care means providing medical and wellness services at the company’s worksite.


Specialty Care
Specialty Care Services is a designation given to those U.S. HealthWorks medical centers that offer state-of-the-art patient care by specialists in the treatment of hand and upper extremity disorders, plastic surgery, orthopedics, spinal disorders, neurology, electrodiagnostic testing, physiatry and anesthesiology.


Urgent Care
Many U.S. HealthWorks centers offer Urgent Care Services in addition to Occupational Medicine. We know that not all minor emergencies and illnesses require hospital care and that there are times when your family physician is not available. Our facilities offer expert medical care, great customer service, and convenience to the communities that we serve. The facilities are typically open with extended hours and are less expensive than the emergency room of your local hospital.


Medical Surveillance Management
U.S. HealthWorks partners with employer health & safety and human resource departments to coordinate Hazmat/Hazwoper, Asbestos, Respiratory Protection, and other types of OSHA required surveillance exams. These coordinated exams are available nationwide with unified billing, monitoring, and reporting of results to reduce the cost and heavy workload placed upon various corporate departments. This service greatly reduces employers having to in-house administer similar programs that are likely fragmented into multiple sources making them difficult to track for OSHA compliance.

We offer our employees an arena to excel in their fields of expertise while providing them a professional work environment. Our equipment is state-of-the-art, and our exemplary services are unmatched. We offer competitive salaries and an excellent benefits package, including

• medical and dental insurance
  
• life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance
  
• short and long term disability insurance
  
• flexible spending accounts
  
• 401(k) retirement savings plan
  
• life balance (employee assistance program)
  
• sick, holiday, vacation and personal time
