Occupational Health

Occupational health is a specific type of care focused on preventing work-related health issues. At Gateway, we help organizations by coordinating employee vaccination programs, conducting health screenings, helping employees manage stress, and providing education on maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

Pre-Employment Health Screenings

Sometimes, job applicants undergo health assessments to ensure they meet the physical requirements of the job, identify potential risks, and promote a safe and healthy working environment.

Ergonomic Assessments and Injury Prevention

Workers with discomfort or muscle issues from their job can get ergonomic assessments. These help avoid injuries and make the workplace more comfortable.

Health and Wellness Programs

Individuals can also visit Gateway Occupational Health to support their overall wellness, whether for immunizations, health screenings, or education to prevent the spread of communicable diseases within the workplace. Learn more about Hancock Health’s other wellness offerings here.
