Injury and IllnessesHealthWorks medical directors are board-certified occupational medicine physicians

Treating all work-related injuries and illnesses, HealthWorks provides a sophisticated occupational medicine program that helps reduce workplace injuries and return injured workers to the workplace quickly and safely.

A written medical release form, which includes return to work status, restrictions and treatment plan, is provided to the injured worker and a copy is faxed to the employer.

When follow-up treatment, testing, or specialist evaluation is required, a case manager will coordinate appointment scheduling.

After hours treatment for work-related injuries is provided around-the-clock through Lehigh Valley Health Network's emergency departments located at Lehigh Valley Hospital - Cedar Crest, Lehigh Valley Hospital - 17th Street and Lehigh Valley Hospital – Muhlenberg. As a HealthWorks client employer, you will be contacted the next business day following employee treatment in an emergency department for a work-related injury.
