The goal of CompCare, LGMC's
Occupational Health Program, is to help companies keep their employees
healthy and injury-free by promoting preventive care and education.
The Occupational Health Program, in conjunction with LGMC's Wellness
Center, offers a comprehensive range of health promotion services
such as aerobic and weight training, massage therapy, various health
screenings and customized or standard lifestyle change classes on
weight control, smoking cessation and stress management. CompCare
can also conduct corporate fitness assessment programs for
employees and, after reviewing the results, assist employers in
designing lifestyle management and education classes to improve
the health of the work force. Health screenings, from cardiovascular
assessment to blood pressure and finger-stick cholesterol profiles,
can be arranged at our sites or the employer's workplace.
Safety Services
Many companies also depend on the occupational safety services
we offer such as:
job site analyses and job description development
CPR, body mechanics and general job site safety classes
Department of Transportation (DOT) physicals
medical history reviews
audiometric testing
lung function studies
drug screening
Injury Management
In cases of worker injuries, we offer a 24-hour Injury Hotline
- 983-PAIN (7246) - and quick referrals to appropriate health care
providers within our occupational health network. The network consists
of physicians and clinics with a return-to-work attitude, assuring
appointments within 48 hours of referral and short waiting periods.
It covers the Acadiana area and includes our two Quick Care minor
emergency centers at Southpark near Youngsville and in Carencro. Both
offer extended hours and have on-site laboratory and X-ray services.
Our Physical Therapy Department also accommodates workers with
early or late hour appointments.
One Contact
All CompCare services can
be arranged through a single point of contact - a dedicated employer
relations representative who promotes hospital services to employers
and their employees and connects them with hospital resources.
