Occupational Health Program gets new home

The CU Denver l Anschutz Medical Campus Occupational Health Clinic is now open for appointments in new digs at the Anschutz Health and Wellness Center, just northwest of the prior clinic location.

The Occupational Health Program is administered by the Environmental Health and Safety Department, under the vice chancellor for research. The program oversees employee health for all research-related activities at the University of Colorado Denver, and is an institutional requirement of our extramurally funded research activities. In addition, the program is a major provider of preventive vaccination services to students at the Anschutz Medical Campus.

Serving researchers, employees, students and volunteers who work with or around animals, OHP also supports management of other potentially hazardous materials such as toxins/venoms, infectious agents, teratogens/carcinogens, radioactive materials, heavy metals, lasers, recombinant DNA, formaldehyde and /or human blood, tissues or cells. The program includes initial and annual enrollment by completing a health surveillance questionnaire.
