Medical Directorships
Just like having a chief medical officer on staff
Our experienced physicians provide medical oversight and guidance to keep your employees healthy.
More than a check-up
Individual support starts with the big picture. Hear from Glenn Williams, MD, on the detailed ways our medical directors ensure your workplace health and safety for a strong continuum of care.
An OhioHealth medical directorship is like having a corporate medical advisor on your team, who is focused on decreasing work-related injuries, improving employee wellness and reducing time away from the job. Our experts design customized occupational health and medical management programs that address the health risks and common conditions your employees face. They also provide medical oversight for emergency response protocols.
