Blessing to relocate health services for area employers

Blessing Health System will relocate some health services for area employers and their workforces to the building at 24th and Broadway in Quincy that currently houses the MedExpress urgent care facility. MedExpress will end its service to the Quincy area at the close of business on March 24. At a date to be determined, Blessing will relocate its newly-named Blessing Employer Clinic to the 24th and Broadway facility.

The Blessing Employer Clinic is a service of the Blessing Be Well at Work program. The program contracts with a dozen area employers to deliver a variety of healthcare services to more than 2,500 employees and covered dependents. The Blessing Employer Clinic currently operates from the Blessing Health Center at 927 Broadway.

“When we became aware of MedExpress’s plan to end its service, relocating the Employer Clinic to the building fit perfectly with Blessing’s commitment to increasing convenient access to health services,” said Maureen Kahn, RN, MHA, MSN, president/chief executive officer, Blessing Health System/Blessing Hospital.

“Relocating the Blessing Employer Clinic to 24th and Broadway will create more convenient access to care for the area employees and their dependents who rely on that service while also creating space within the Blessing Health Center for our patients and providers,” she concluded.
