A pre-employment physical is an examination provided to candidates for a potential job. Urgent Care + TeleHealth providers conduct pre-employment & annual physical exams, OSHA physicals, biometric screening, physical abilities testing, and return-to-work physicals which are compliant and customized by job requirements.

Our providers regularly provide drug tests for employers including DOT drug tests for commercial drivers.  A drug test involves taking samples like urine, blood, or saliva of an individual, which is tested for the presence of a drug.

Since the start of the COVID pandemic, Urgent Care + TeleHealth has provided thousands of COVID-19 tests using sensitive lab equipment that provides quicker and more accurate results than at-home tests. Covid tests look for the Sars Cov 2 virus, its antigen, or the antibodies formed in the body in response to the virus. The common Covid tests performed include rapid antigen tests, rapid molecular test, and nucleic acid amplification tests. We also have Molecular flu testing at our clinics as well as COVID-19 vaccines.

Spirometry (spy-ROM-uh-tree) is a type of pulmonary function test, commonly used in an office to assess how well your lungs work by measuring how much air you inhale, how much you exhale and how quickly you exhale. It’s carried out using a device called a spirometer, which is a small machine attached by a cable to a mouthpiece.

Spirometry is used to diagnose asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other conditions that affect breathing. Spirometry may also be used periodically to monitor your lung condition and check whether a treatment for a chronic lung condition is helping you breathe better.

A breath alcohol test, commonly called a “breathalyzer” or a “BAT,” is an instant screening that determines precisely how much alcohol a person has in their breath. Relying on a scientific principle known as “Henry’s Law,” the percent of alcohol in a person’s breath can be assumed to match the percent of alcohol in that person’s blood. As compared with blood alcohol tests, breath testing for alcohol is far more convenient, less painful, much faster, and just as accurate. Thus, breath alcohol testing has become the most popular method to detect if someone is intoxicated, and is widely used by employers, required by DOT, and administered by law enforcement.

Speedy post-accident first aid is critical to protect against long-term complications. Injuries caused by workplace accidents might result in concussions, brain injury, whiplash, damaged ligaments, and herniated discs in the spine. Post-accident first aid at Urgent Care + TeleHealth is offered on a walk-in or appointment basis at our clinics in Sonoma, Napa, and Benicia. Our goal is to provide patients with the immediate attention that they require.  Wait times are generally much shorter than at an emergency room.

Back and neck injuries are unfortunately common in the workplace – especially in the demanding jobs of the wine country. In these cases, our goal will be to assess the cause and then to provide treatment that speeds recovery and a return to work. Our treatment of back and neck injuries always starts with a thorough assessment, physical exam, and accurate diagnosis of the possible cause.

At our urgent care clinics in Napa, Benicia, and Sonoma, we offer a digital x-ray platform.  Imaging tools like x-rays allow us to assess a disability or injury much easier, which in turn, ensures that the provider can come up with an accurate diagnosis. 

Foreign body removal is a procedure that, as the name suggests, is a way to remove a foreign object from inside the body. Foreign objects are most likely introduced into the body by sudden injury or accident. These foreign objects are not only limited to the skin and may be found in different parts of the body, including the finger, leg, stomach, ear, nose, and even the eye.

Repetitive stress injuries, also known as repetitive strain injuries, are associated with damage to muscles, tendons, and nerves after continuously being exposed to repetitive motion. These injuries may be caused by activities like computer work, manual labor, painting, or even hairdressing. Our providers will assess the root cause and then provide treatment to speed recovery and a return to work.

If not treated promptly, burn injuries may lead to long-term damage to the body – including nerve damage and lack of sensation. Therefore, it’s important for workers to receive prompt first aid for burns.
