While Medcor does not deliver direct mental health therapy as a core service, we integrate mental wellness into every aspect of workplace health. From clinics and triage to wellness education and safety programs, we help create safer, more supportive environments where employees can thrive.According to the American Psychological Association, 92% of employees say it’s important that their organization supports mental health in the workplace.
