Work-related Injuries and Illnesses: The RedMed clinic provides treatment and case management for work-related injuries and illnesses. Employees who are injured at work should use the clinic as their first point of care unless the injury is life- or limb-threatening or occurs after RedMed Clinic hours, in which case the employee should be taken to the nearest emergency room. Additional information about work-related injuries and illnesses is available on the Benefits Department's Workers Compensation web page. Employees and their supervisors should complete a First Report of Injury form prior to visiting the clinic. For assistance in completing the form, contact the Benefits Department and speak to a Leave of Absence Representative.

Other Available Services: The clinic offers a variety of medical services at no cost for University employees, including:

  • Accidents and falls
  • Back pain
  • Bleeding and cuts (suture, steri-strips, dermabond, bandage and dressing)
  • Breathing difficulties, e.g. mild to moderate asthma (peak flow and nebulizer)
  • Broken bones and fractures (minor breaks, e.g., fingers and toes)

The RedMed clinic currently only treats University employees (including Academic Health Sciences employees). In the future we hope to expand our space and services so that we can also treat family members.

In addition to RedMed, employees enrolled in the University's Employee Health Care Plan also have no-cost access to the Employee Assistance Program for mental health needs and treatment of substance abuse and other addictions.
