Scrubs to Startup, business launch for nurse entrepreneurs
Hands on and clinical

Occupational health, on site and on contract.

Employers need pre-placement screening, surveillance, drug testing and injury management. It is recurring, contracted and invoiced to a company rather than a patient.

Before you can open

Scope the service list first.

Occupational health is a bundle. Which items you sell decides your requirements, your cover and your structure.

Professional entity

We do this

Usually a professional entity. Filing coordinated.

Physician relationship for medical clearance

Yours to secure

Required for certain examinations and determinations.

Certifications for testing you offer

You do this

Drug testing collector, spirometry, audiometry and similar, depending on your service list.

Malpractice and professional cover

You do this

Covering on-site work at client premises.

Records, confidentiality and reporting

We do this

Employee health records are held separately from employment records. Get this structure right first time.

Employer contracts and service schedules

We do this

Scope, rates, on-site hours and reporting obligations.

Can you own an occupational health service in your state?

Much of this sits inside RN scope, but anything involving medical clearance, certification exams or prescribing needs a physician relationship. Structure follows the exact service list, which is why we scope it before quoting.

Questions nurses ask about an occupational health service.

For medical clearance and certain regulated examinations, yes. For screening, surveillance and injury triage, often not. The scope decides it.

Manufacturing, construction, logistics, transport and any employer with regulatory surveillance obligations. They are already paying someone.

That is the appeal. Surveillance and screening run on annual cycles, so a signed employer tends to stay signed.

Yes, and it is the sensible way in. Drug testing collection or pre-placement screening alone is a real business and expands from there.
