Provide on-site health screenings and vaccinations
Individuals living below the NPPS often have limited access to health resources, such as screenings and vaccinations. Preventive care can detect early illnesses, decrease medical claims, and increase productivity as well as save employers from additional costs, such as insurance or paid sick leave.
Connect with mobile health services to offer screenings and vaccinations at your place of business.
To get started:
Build partnerships with providers who are dedicated to decreasing health disparities in the community by increasing vaccination and screening access.
Share your space for community health-related events.
Advertise screening and vaccination services to your employees and the community.
