For residents and employers in the Oxford Hills community, accessing high-quality urgent care and occupational health services just became easier. A new Concentra Oxford center has opened its doors through a joint venture with MaineHealth and in collaboration with Stephens Memorial Hospital. This initiative aims to provide a seamless healthcare experience, ensuring patients receive the appropriate care in the right setting and at the right time.
This new facility expands healthcare access for Stephens Memorial Hospital and MaineHealth patients, offering a reliable option for non-emergency medical needs. When minor injuries or illnesses arise that cannot wait for a primary care appointment but don’t necessitate a trip to the emergency room, Concentra Oxford provides a convenient solution. The medical professionals at Concentra will work in close coordination with Stephens providers to ensure a cohesive and patient-centered approach to healthcare.
Andrea Patstone, President of Stephens Memorial Hospital, emphasized the importance of this new center for the community: “Our community has been seeking more readily available and convenient access to excellent non-emergency care. We are thrilled about this partnership and the opportunity to introduce another cost-effective healthcare choice to our community, reinforcing our commitment to making our communities the healthiest in America.”
Beyond urgent care, Concentra Oxford will continue to serve the needs of local employers. Businesses can utilize the center for a comprehensive suite of employer health services. These include managing workers’ compensation cases, providing expert injury care, conducting pre-employment and ongoing employment screenings, administering physical examinations, and managing regulatory exams.
Maiya LaVerdure, Vice President of Concentra operations, highlighted Concentra’s long-standing commitment to the region: “Concentra has been a trusted urgent care and occupational health provider in Maine and the greater Oxford area for many years, serving both individuals and employers. We are excited to extend our urgent care services to Stephens Memorial Hospital patients and to continue supporting Maine employers by ensuring their workforce remains strong, healthy, and safe on the job.”
Concentra Oxford is conveniently located in the Oxford Plaza at 1570 Main Street, Oxford, Maine, easily accessible next to Ocean State Job Lots. The center operates Monday through Friday, from 7 am to 4 pm, and welcomes patients aged two years and older. They accept all major insurance plans. For patients younger than two years, it is recommended to consult a pediatrician for the most appropriate care.
