The Center of Occupational Health and Education at Valley Medical Center
OHS is the Center of Occupational Health & Education (COHE), a long-term research project in cooperation with L&I and the UW, which has had significant success in the treatment of injured workers in this state.. The Department of Labor and Industries (L&I) has designed the project to transfer knowledge from occupational health experts to attending doctors in the community. With this knowledge, you will be able to reduce disability duration and facilitate return to work.
Over the next several years, the COHE, a partnership between Valley Medical Center and L&I, will help doctors expand their occupational healthcare expertise to improve worker's outcomes.
To reach COHE, go to the COHE Website, or email cohe_info@valleymed.org.
