Treating workplace injuries and occupational illness requires a different skillset, with a focus on helping injured employees get the curative and rehabilitative care they need to resume light duty, then fully resume their job duties. At Health Care Centers of Florida, we don’t just treat the injury. We approach care holistically, with an eye toward helping people out of work due to an injury regain the skills they need to keep working, so they can support their families. Our Pembroke Pines, FL occupational medicine services also benefit employers, as we focus on what your injured employee needs to get back to work safely and return without the risk of injury from going back too soon.

Occupational Medicine Pembroke Pines, FL
We work closely with employers who have employees who have been injured at work and are now receiving workers’ compensation. Treating workplace injuries involves not just addressing the physical harm, but also restoring the injured employee’s abilities and range of motion to the point they were before the accident—or even better. We blend primary care, rehabilitative therapy, and comprehensive case management to help both employers and employees.
Our medical team identifies and treats work-related musculoskeletal injuries, chemical exposures, and other conditions and injuries that occur in the course of the job. As the injured employee heals, we regularly assess their ability to complete regular job duties, including gauging their range of motion, lifting capabilities, and ability to stand and walk for long periods of time. We collaborate with the employer and give regular updates on the employee’s improvement and any other treatments that may be necessary for them to return to work.
Our Pembroke Pines occupational medicine services include collaboration with employers and their human resources department to manage workers compensation claims, review medical treatment and rehabilitative therapy the injured employee receives, and ensure compliance with Florida workers’ compensation laws. We also oversee the injured employee’s return to work, including recommendations for light duty and ensuring that they are full ready to get back to their job duties, without the risk of reinjury. As your injured employee recovers and undergoes our recommended course of treatment, we communicate regularly with all key stakeholders, including you, the employer, the employee, clinicians, and the treatment payor, streamlining the claims process on your end.
