Columbus, Ohio, September 23, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Hometown Urgent Care and Occupational Health continues its growth strategy with a new clinic opening October 14 in Groveport, Ohio. The additional site is the fourth newly constructed clinic for Hometown in less than 12 months.
The expansion in Groveport, Ohio will serve as an occupational health clinic, catering exclusively to employers/employees in Groveport, Canal Winchester and southern Columbus areas. The clinic model will allow Hometown to meet local employers healthcare needs quickly and reduce wait times for their employees while continuing to save healthcare costs. The Occupational Health Clinic will also improve efficiencies at the existing Hometown Urgent Care center by reducing wait time for urgent care patients.
The expansion provides a win-win scenario for employers, their employees and also the local community seeking faster urgent care needs. Later this year, Hometown also plans to add Physical Therapy services at the new Occupational Health Clinic thereby providing complete injury care management for work injuries of local employers.
