Partnering with you for a healthy, safe workforce
Sturdy Health Occupational Health Services is the oldest hospital-based occupational health service in the state of Massachusetts. Backed by Sturdy Memorial Hospital, we offer integrated access to physical and occupational therapy, diagnostic testing, and off-hour emergency care for injuries. This coordinated model enables our team to monitor recovery and manage care for each patient individually.
It is our goal at OHS to coordinate the care and treatment of individual patients and get them back to work as quickly as possible using an aggressive, modified return-to-work program. This allows the injured employee to be a productive member of your workforce team while giving them the time needed to fully recover.
