Drug & Alcohol Testing – Our program is designed to meet all major regulatory agency requirements. A secure drug screen collection process is available at the NOH clinic along with on-site Medical Review Officer services. NOH specimen collectors are trained and qualified under 49 CFR Part 40 Procedures for Transportation Workplace Drug and Alcohol Testing, Urine Collection and Breath Testing procedures. NOH secure bathroom facilities are specifically designed to help prevent specimen adulteration. Functional Capacity Evaluations – NOH conducts Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCE) to provide a systematic process of measuring and assessing an individual’s work capacity. NOH utilizes the computerized Matheson System for Functional Capacity Evaluations, which provides both an abbreviated and/or a full report to the requesting clinician. The Matheson System uses “Best Practice Research” in support of all tests. This research is revised to reflect the soundest clinical practice and supporting literature. Injured Worker Care – For minor work-related injuries and illnesses, the Northwestern Occupational Health (NOH) clinic (behind Northwestern Medical Center) routinely treats acute work-related injuries on a walk-in basis such as minor lacerations (we do suturing), burns, or foreign bodies in the eye. Other minor injuries, such as sprains and strains, may be seen on a scheduled basis within 24-48 hours. Alternatively, employees can seek services at the Northwestern Urgent Care as indicated on the website.
