At Member Medical, we believe that healthcare shouldn’t just happen within the four walls of a clinic. To truly support our community, we have to go where the action is. That’s why our team recently spent a fantastic day on-site at Altec Inc. in Elizabethtown, connecting with their leadership and safety teams to workplace wellness.
The visit kicked off with a collaborative lunch, where the Member Medical team and Altec’s Safety team sat down to talk strategy. While the meal was excellent, the conversation was even better.
The focus? Member Medical provides occupational health support for the Altec safety team by providing pre-employment physicals for potential employees, Department of Transportation physicals for commercial drivers licenses, and support employees experiencing an injury on the job.
Pre-Employment Care
Hiring the right person means ensuring they are physically capable of performing their job safely and effectively. At Member Medical, we provide comprehensive pre-employment physicals tailored to the specific demands of your workplace. Our evaluations go beyond a simple check-up, offering detailed screenings such as health risk assessments, drug and alcohol testing, and physical ability checks.
By partnering with us for your onboarding process, business and industry in Hardin County can reduce the risk of workplace injuries, ensure regulatory compliance, and gain peace of mind knowing your new hires are fit for duty from day one.
DOT Physicals
When commercial vehicles are your business, keeping your drivers on the road requires medical certification that is both thorough and compliant with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) standards. Our medical team provides efficient Department of Transportation (DOT) physicals for commercial driver’s license (CDL) holders, covering everything from vision and hearing tests to blood pressure and urinalysis.
We understand that in the transportation industry, time is money; that’s why we offer streamlined scheduling to get your drivers through their exams and back behind the wheel as quickly as possible. Best of all, for our standard and premium members, one DOT exam per year is included at no additional cost.
Preventative and Urgent Care
The best way to manage workers’ compensation costs is to prevent injuries before they happen and address minor issues before they escalate. Member Medical provides proactive, “first-aid” style care that allows employees to be seen immediately for non-emergency workplace concerns like minor strains, sprains, or repetitive motion issues. By providing your team with direct, unlimited access to a primary care provider who knows their medical history, you can often resolve health concerns in the office—avoiding the long wait times, high costs, and automatic claim-filing associated with Emergency Room or Urgent Care visits.
Our goal is to keep your employees healthy and on the job, saving your business from the rising premiums and administrative burdens of unnecessary workers’ comp claims.
Following our meeting, the Altec team treated us to a comprehensive tour of their facility. Seeing the precision, dedication, and hard work that goes into every Altec product was truly impressive.
Understanding the physical demands and the environment where Altec employees spend their days allows us to provide better, more tailored care.
Our partnership with Altec is built on a shared mission: keeping people healthy.
We are incredibly proud of this partnership and look forward to a long, healthy future together. When local businesses and local healthcare work together, the whole Elizabethtown community wins.
