Doctorcall (previously Octopus Health) deliver comprehensive Occupational Health Services to Local, National & International organisations. Please also see www.doctorcall.co.uk/occupational_health/index.html
The Occupational Health Department offers a broad range of services. Our OH Physicians & OH Specialist Nurses have significant expertise and experience. Our clinic is modern, well equipped and comfortable. We aim to support organisations to manage their responsibilities for Health & Safety legislation.
The unique benefit of Occupational Health being situated within an extensive multi disciplinary clinic is the acceleration of co-ordinated assessment & treatment to benefit both employee & employer alike. Our fast track service will have a positive affect on the costs associated with sickness absence; these costs being £495 per employee per year [HSE 2006].Healthy Workplaces pdf
