Medixx’s offerings prioritise health and safety for employees in both the on- and off-site work environments, across multiple industry sectors, maintaining compliance with government health and safety regulations.

Medixx Services

As the leading supplier of occupational health services in Namibia, Medixx provides a diverse range of services.

Occupational Medicine

Specialised medical care to manage and prevent work-related illness and injuries that ensures the health and well-being of your employees.

Medical Surveillance

Regular surveillance of employees’ health also promotes early detection of potential health concerns, enabling early intervention. We perform risk based medical surveillance, including monitoring of biological exposures and of biological effects of exposure.

Allied Services – Injury on Duty (IOD)

Comprehensive services for optimal management and consistent reporting of workplace injuries, especially in high-risk industries such as mining and engineering. We encourage early return to work and involve a multi-disciplinary team, including wound care clinics, general practitioners, specialists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, psychologists & biokineticists.

Employment Screening

Comprehensive pre-employment medical assessments to certify that prospective employees meet fitness for work requirements and to document current health status.

Impairment Assessments

Evaluations that gauge an individual’s functional abilities and limitations because of injury, illness, or other health conditions. The results from these assessments guide rehabilitation and/or inform advice regarding changes to the workplace (or the employee’s role) to accommodate the changed abilities.

Incapacity Management

Support for employers managing employee absence as a consequence of illness or injury. We advise on return-to-work plans and adaptations or modifications to promote recovery and productivity. We assist with Medical Tribunal Processes and liaise with medical colleagues after obtaining the required patient consent.

Periodic Screening

Routine health checks and assessments for employees that monitor their health status over time to identify any changes and/or issues of potential concern. We focus on early retection of accelerated decline in lung functions and audiometry to prevent progression to overt occupational diseases.

Offshore Health Services

Tailored medical care for specialist offshore workers like drillers, roustabouts, and roughnecks who can encounter distinctive health challenges coupled with specific offshore regulatory requirements. Offshore workers in remote locations do not always have fast evacuation options due to weather conditions on land or at sea.

Referrals

Employees who need specialist health services, will be referred to the appropriate providers for prompt and appropriate care.

Mental Health and Wellness Services
Medixx promotes mental health and wellbeing by offering employee wellness programs and supportive workplace services, including wellness days, screenings, workshops, training, team building, webinars and individual sessions. 
Our holistic approach promotes preventative initiatives and interventions in the workplace. We empower employees to prioritise mental health and wellness as part of overall occupational health.
