Mission, Vision and Objectives:	Work-Safe Occupational Health was formed in October 2001. The MISSION is to build a support system remaining at the forefront of medical technology and rehabilitative health care delivery, preventing disease, promoting wellness, and thereby being responsible corporate citizens. This is accomplished by recognizing that criteria have been set for quality, price, service and outcome. To fulfill the mission, the vision is to work jointly with companies and their employees to minimize lost work time and enhance the health and safety of each worker, striving to keep employees working and prepare them for job placements that are appropriate to their impairments. These goals are achieved through effective case management, return to work/transitional programs, occupational health physician networks, duration guidelines, and treatment protocols geared toward meeting quality outcome standards and compliance with state and federal regulations. Work-Safe, works collaboratively with employers either on-site at the work place, or off-site at any of the six ambulatory care centers, to provide a full spectrum of medical services to accommodate the company’s geographic locations and patient/worker volumes throughout Michigan and globally.
