Union County, North Carolina sent this bulletin at 11/04/2025 10:00 AM EST

Colleagues,

We are excited to share new updates about our Employee Health & Wellness Center, which continues to evolve as an exceptional resource for our organization. As part of our ongoing commitment to your health and well-being, we are pleased to announce enhanced services and expanded availability, with more on the way.

What’s New at the Employee Health & Wellness Center

Consistent care team with two new Advanced Practice Providers (Lindsay King and Amber Murray) dedicated to our Health & Wellness Center, allowing employees to build a relationship.
More provider availability to better support same-day and next-day needs.
Vaccinations on site, including flu vaccines (any age) and COVID-19 vaccinations (18+).
Behavioral health services coming by the end of December.
Pre-employment vaccinations for candidates whose roles or departments require them.

Union County Employee Health & Wellness Center

The Center, operated by Atrium Health, offers same-day or next-day appointments, wellness visits, many common prescriptions, and soon, behavioral health services - all with no out-of-pocket cost to you.

If you have not been yet, the center is located at 412 East Franklin Street in Monroe (next to A Cause for Tea).

New Resource Page on County Connect

health & wellness center page on County Connect

We have launched a new page on County Connect that includes:

Instructions for transferring medical records
A flyer to help distinguish behavioral health services offered through the Wellness Center versus the Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
Meet the Care Team information and service details
Your Health Matters newsletters from Atrium Health

Following each visit, you will receive a brief post-appointment survey. Please take a moment to complete these surveys, so we may consider your feedback to continuously improve services.

Finally, we're working with departments to finalize a transition of all Occ Med services to our Health & Wellness Center. Starting Jan. 1, employees will go to the Employee Health & Wellness Center for services previously taken care of at Occ Med. If you have questions about the Health & Wellness Center, email Megan Parks, Director of Strategy & Innovation.

We encourage you to take advantage of this valuable, convenient benefit and prioritize your health and well-being.
