Keeping your staff healthy and productive is the objective of most companies. However, in the event there is an accident, Dr. Jon Mazur, Medical Director of Occupational Health, is there for treatment and recovery. Dr. Mazur explained how the federal organizations OSHA and NIOSH have standards in place since 1970. Dr. Mazur and his staff abide by these standards when conducting routine assessments, like DOT physicals, and treating injuries.
Musculoskeletal injuries are the most common injury Dr. Mazur and his team see. Southcoast is his primary patient base but they do see patients from large companies too. Would it surprise you to learn they also see patients for injury due to repetitive motion at work (like back pain), mismanagement of diabetes, rashes, exposure, chronic cough, bites, and head injuries. And of course they treat patients for the obvious reasons of slips, tips, and falls. Occupational health can treat these injuries as well as create therapeutic exercise programs for treatment. If you are injured at work you will likely see a Dr. in occupational health for treatment. Dr. Mazur explained how his parents taught him that a disability doesn’t have to be a handicap. He uses that compassion and positivity on a daily basis.
