Clinical Services
Our care model is to combine a thorough medical evaluation of patients with a detailed assessment of occupational and/or environmental exposures that could be contributing to the patient’s medical condition. This may involve a site visit to a worksite or home by a team led by our industrial hygienist. Often this exposure assessment leads to identification of a hazard that can be eliminated or reduced, resulting in an improvement of the patient’s clinical condition and a reduction of risk for others.
As a member of the Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics (AOEC) the Yale Occupational & Environmental Medicine Program is dedicated to the prevention and treatment of occupational and environmental illnesses and injuries.
