Carnival Cruises launches in-house medical facility

Miami-based Carnival employees can get their non-emergency medical needs taken care of at the office


Carnival Cruises has launched an in-house medical facility for its Miami-based employees who can have their non-emergency medical needs taken care of at the office, according to an article on the Miami Today News website.

Over the past couple of years, on-site healthcare and medical facilities for employees have increased in number, according to that article. Thirty percent of corporations in the US have opened on-site facilities like health clinics in the past four years, with others offering pharmacy services and fitness centers, the article said.

The 1,100-square-foot Carnival Care Center includes walk-in primary-care medical treatment for non-emergency illnesses and injuries, preventative care, management options for chronic conditions, health coaching and wellness services.
