Regional systems and homecare networks face a unique challenge: keeping onboarding consistent across dispersed locations. Different facilities, varied state rules, and a mix of hospital, post-acute, and homecare staffing can quickly turn pre-employment screening into a patchwork.
The U.S. has more than 6,000 hospitals, and coordination across systems is the norm rather than the exception. A centralized occupational health partner with standardized workflows, electronic reporting, and flexible delivery models helps prevent delays, close audit gaps, and keep staff moving toward day-one readiness.
Mobile Health brings a logistics advantage to regional employers: 6,500+ clinics with 77% of employees living within 10 miles of a clinic, plus on-site teams that can support surge events while clinics handle steady-state volume. Since 1984, Mobile Health has scaled screening programs for enterprise healthcare organizations nationwide.
One Program, Many Locations
Regional healthcare employers see the most value when they treat screening as one systemwide program instead of a collection of local vendor relationships. Mobile Health helps standardize protocols so the same core requirements apply across facilities, flexing only where state or local rules differ.
Systems can bring together:
- Drug and alcohol testing
- TB testing (including QuantiFERON-TB blood tests)
- Vaccines and titers
- Physical exams
- Online medical evaluations
- Respirator fit testing
Candidates for hospital, post-acute, and homecare staffing roles follow the same steps regardless of where they are assigned today, or tomorrow.
Centralized scheduling and approvals through the Mobile Health Client Portal give HR and employee health teams a real-time view of candidate status across the entire system. Instead of chasing faxes or waiting on individual clinic reports, they can see who is scheduled, who has completed exams, and who is cleared to work.
Consistent documentation and reporting across all sites also strengthen audit readiness. When surveyors arrive, systems can quickly produce electronic records for drug screens, immunizations, TB tests, physical exams, and respirator clearances instead of scrambling to collect information from multiple locations.
Flexible Delivery for Clinic and On-Site
Multi-location staffing requires more than one delivery model. Mobile Health supports everyday hiring through 6,500+ clinics while deploying on-site occupational health teams to your facilities when you need additional capacity.
Clinic-based exams keep routine onboarding moving at a predictable pace, ideal for ongoing hiring, renewals, and annual compliance.
On-site exams for employers bring the clinic to you for surge hiring, seasonal demand, new facility launches, or system-wide campaigns. Large cohorts can be cleared in a single event with minimal disruption to patient care.
Facilities can pair services in one visit to reduce repeat appointments. Bundling services in a single appointment keeps staff focused on patients instead of multiple trips and extra wait times.
Role-Ready Compliance for Support Staff
Support roles are essential to safe, efficient operations. Centralized screening programs help ensure workers in these roles meet the same standards no matter which facility they serve.
A typical sequence for support staff includes:
- Drug screen: Consistent with systemwide substance-use policies
- TB blood test: Meeting facility and regulatory expectations for healthcare workers
- Immunizations/titers: MMR, varicella, Tdap, hepatitis B, and influenza
- Physical exams: Verifying the ability to perform essential job functions safely
- Respirator fit testing: Using online medical evaluations to clear workers, then completing fit testing for roles that involve airborne precautions or specific PPE requirements
Mobile Health applies this role-ready framework across facilities while allowing for site-specific nuances. With integrated electronic records, leaders can see at a glance which workers are fully compliant for patient-care environments and which still have outstanding steps.
