Helping You Avoid Liability, Promote Safety, and Improve Productivity

Blue Collar Companies Can’t afford to Neglect Quality Occupational Medicine

Every company’s success hinges on hiring the best workers and keeping them healthy.  The wrong people… or the right people working with injuries… leads to low productivity, high healthcare costs, and constant employee turnover.

Not only that, but if you aren’t properly testing, you could open yourself to financially crippling lawsuits and fines. With such huge stakes, a huge healthcare provider seems like an obvious choice.

Except… the care your workers would receive doesn’t match high prices you’d be paying. Nation wide medical corporations lack the appropriate specialization, accountability, and responsiveness necessary for blue collar workers, making them more a headache than a help. And you can bet that your workers’ testing is never the highest priority, forcing them to sit for hours as they wait to take a 15 minute test.

Our Tests and Services

Whether you send your employees our way for testing, physicals, or injury treatment, Guardian Health allows you to be the voice of your workers without risking business goals. We provide both testing and treatment plans designed to save workers from a future racked with physical pain.

  • The FMCSA mandates that commercial drivers operating vehicles with a maximum gross vehicle weight rating of over 10,000 pounds are required to obtain and maintain a valid Medical Examiner's Certificate (ME Certificate)

  • From basic physicals to more comprehensive “Fit for duty” exams, we can help. We can work with your company to customize our exams to your needs.

  • We are proud to offer comprehensive physicals for firefighters including PFTs, Chest X-ray, Treadmill Test, and the whole package! We are up to date on NFPA 1582 guidelines and ready to serve your entire department in-house! We are the only company in our area offering these services in our office! No need for extra travel and appointments. Please call or message us for details.

  • Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working. The tests measure lung volume, capacity, and rates of flow for workers exposed to potentially dangerous levels of dust. We can also sign off on your respirator fit questionnaires.

  • A hearing conservation program tests baseline hearing and then can monitor for hearing loss over time. Hearing loss due to exposure can cost an employer heavily in insurance and disability claims.

  • We offer quantitative respirator fit testing. This is a pass/fail method used on half-masks that relies on senses - such as taste and smell - to detect air leakage from your respirator.

  • Asbestosis and silicosis along with other medical conditions may occur in people that are exposed to dusts and hazardous materials in various occupations such as mining, construction, manufacturing, and building maintenance. Monitoring programs are mandated for some workers. We can help you stay in compliance.

  • Offering DOT/Non DOT, pre-employment drug and breath alcohol testing

    Urine drug screens are available up to 2 hours prior to closing

 

We’re centrally located between Spokane and CDA, right off I-90.

Workers never need to worry about stopping by at the wrong time; we have snacks and beverages, an excellent vacuum for dusty boots, and plenty of parking for large trucks!

How We Got Started

Guardian Occupational Health was started by longtime Spokane resident Peter Glainville back in 2014. Having already spent years working with his hands in roofing, carpentry, and farming, Peter transitioned into a career in healthcare in the early 2000’s.

His goal was simple: helping fellow blue-collar workers not only get back to work, but avoid disability well into old age with early intervention and proven recovery strategies.

Today, Peter and his team have created a unique healthcare offering through a  combination of occupational medicine, integrative medicine, and exercise physiology.

As a result, Guardian Health is able to pursue its twofold mission: bullet proof protection from liability for businesses, while also providing specialized healthcare for truck drivers, firefighters, and the other industry workers building a better future for the Inland PNW.
