Health Services
HISTORY
The Medical Office was created over 40 years ago to screen and oversee the health of missionaries in the field, and to provide periodic evaluation and examination of those personnel and their dependents. As the building has evolved, so has the Medical Office. In addition to caring for mission personnel, the office provides occupational health and safety services to employees of tenant agencies of The Interchurch Center and Travel Consultations and Immunizations.
TRAVEL IMMUNIZATION AND CONSULTATION
Open to both the general public and to employees of TIC tenant agencies, TIC Medical Office provides expert consultation and immunization to travelers off on holiday or on business. These services are offered by appointment only. Consultation and immunizations carry with them a charge, payable with cash or major credit card at the time of service. Fees are subject to change due to varying costs. (more...)

INCIDENTAL & SEMI-URGENT MEDICAL TREATMENT
Employees working within The Interchurch Center will be screened by the Registered Nurse and/or the Nurse Practitioner, and when necessary, referred to the TIC Physician or their private physician.
We will always make the effort to write or phone the personal physician with information or important observations concerning the health of the individual.
For Emergencies or when deemed necessary the TIC Medical Office personnel will go to the tenant offices, perform an emergency evaluation, and return the individual to the TIC Medical Office or arrange transport to an emergency room.
Treatment of institutional employees by the Registered Nurse or the Nurse Practitioner will conform to our own Treatment Protocols, or will require direct approval by the Physician Consultant.
