BOHP Occupational Health Enrollment _Accessible  Logo

  • Occupational Health Enrollment 

     

    What is this? Texas A&M University is required by TAMUS, state, and federal regulations to provide an occupational health program for individuals who may have occupational risk of exposure to infectious biohazards or who have contact with animals. The program includes medical review and surveillance.

     

    The purpose of enrolling in the Biosafety Occupational Health Program annually is to evaluate your workplace hazards (e.g. infectious biohazards, animal allergens, etc.), and any new or existing health concerns that may be affected by these hazards. Annual enrollment also provides you an opportunity to request an appointment with the occupational health provider if you wish to discuss any of these concerns confidentially.

     

     If you have questions or require assistance, you may contact the medical provider directly at (979) 393-0161 or info@uohpartners.com
