Our services are tailored to Western Colorado

Living and working in Western Garfield County presents unique employment challenges and hazards. We are well acquainted with the specialized work of the gas industry, construction, transportation and other physically demanding vocations. Grand River Health sees more hand and upper extremity trauma than other regional hospitals and as a result added new staff and services to evaluate, treat and rehabilitate these specific workplace injuries.

We also offer Drug and Alcohol Testing, DOT Physicals and many other employment screenings.
