Concentra, a national leader in occupational health and urgent care, is expanding its services in Maine through a joint venture with MaineHealth and in partnership with Stephens Memorial Hospital. The new facility, Concentra Oxford, will bring a much-needed occupational health and urgent care center to the Oxford Hills community, ensuring residents and local employers have convenient access to high-quality medical services. This collaboration is designed to streamline patient care for Stephens Memorial Hospital, directing individuals to the most appropriate and efficient healthcare setting for their needs.
The establishment of Concentra Oxford addresses the growing demand for accessible, non-emergency medical care in the region. It will serve as a vital resource for patients of Stephens Memorial Hospital and the broader MaineHealth network who require prompt attention for injuries and illnesses that are not life-threatening but still necessitate timely treatment. Concentra’s team of experienced clinicians will work in close coordination with Stephens Memorial Hospital providers to deliver seamless and integrated care. This ensures patients receive the right level of care, whether it’s for a sudden minor ailment or ongoing occupational health needs.
“Our community has expressed a clear need for more readily available and convenient options for non-emergency healthcare,” stated Andrea Patstone, President of Stephens Memorial Hospital. “This partnership with Concentra aligns perfectly with our commitment to improving the health of our communities. By bringing Concentra Urgent Care to Oxford, we are providing an affordable and accessible healthcare solution, furthering our vision of fostering the healthiest communities in America.”
For local businesses in and around Oxford, Concentra Oxford will also function as a comprehensive occupational health provider. Employers can utilize the center for a range of services, including the management of workers’ compensation claims, treatment for workplace injuries, pre-employment and ongoing health screenings, physical examinations, and compliance with regulatory health requirements. This dual focus on both urgent care and occupational health makes Concentra Oxford a valuable asset to the local community and economy.
Maiya LaVerdure, Vice President of Concentra operations, emphasized Concentra’s long-standing commitment to Maine and the Oxford area. “Concentra has been a trusted provider of urgent care and occupational health services in Maine for many years. We are excited to extend our services to Stephens Memorial Hospital patients and to continue supporting Maine employers by ensuring their workforce remains healthy and safe.”
Concentra Oxford is strategically located in the Oxford Plaza at 1570 Main Street in Oxford, Maine, easily accessible next to Ocean State Job Lots. The center will operate Monday through Friday, from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm, and welcomes patients aged two years and older. Concentra accepts all major insurance plans, making healthcare more financially accessible to the community. For patients younger than two, it is recommended to consult a pediatrician for specialized care.
