PITTSBURGH, PA, (March 27, 2003) – Mobile Medical Corporation (MMC) has been awarded a three-year contract by The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, to provide work site first aid services for construction and renovation projects conducted at the University, in conjunction with an Owner Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) administered by Marsh USA Inc./Pittsburgh Office. The University’s plans include $300 million of construction projects at Main Campus locations over the next
five years.
A recognized provider of industrial medical services
nationwide, MMC will supply nursing and first-aid care in support of workplace
safety. In recent months, workplace
safety has become a focal point for Pennsylvania, Ohio and Maryland, states
that passed legislation mandating drug-free work sites and substance-abuse
testing for state-funded construction projects.
On
a day-to-day basis, MMC works closely with
contractors, labor unions, facility owners and other clients to provide
a range of services: nursing and first
aid stations, physical examinations,
respiratory protection, biological monitoring for OSHA compliance, and
substance abuse testing programs – all designed to promote workplace safety and
help reduce worker compensation costs.
“We furnish risk management services with the goal of minimizing work stoppage, reducing administrative burden, and ensuring regulatory compliance,” said Cynthia J. Latsko, president, Mobile Medical Corporation. “By treating injuries at the work site, we can help workers receive early medical care and return to service as soon as possible. Our on-site staff members treat injuries, provide follow-up care, maintain injury logs and records and submit insurance claims.”
“We chose MMC because of the company’s experience in
Pennsylvania and other regions nationwide, along with its technology that
permits timely data management and reporting,” said Greg Scott, manager of Construction, The Pennsylvania State
University.
