The city
Living in Sylmar, CA
Sylmar sits at the northern edge of Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley, where suburban streets meet the foothills of the Angeles National Forest. Known historically for its olive groves, it offers a quieter, more spacious feel than much of the city, with equestrian trails and mountain views — a practical home base for nurses who want LA access without dense.

More about WORKCARE INC
Originally established to support workplace medical surveillance programs, the company has grown over 40 years into a full-service organization delivering solutions in prevention, early intervention, injury care, occupational health screening, workforce wellbeing, and absence management. WorkCare recently joined the APM Group, a global leader in health and human services, which strengthens its capacity to evolve alongside employer needs. The company serves employers nationally and internationally, providing onsite clinical services, telehealth, and case management. For nurses, WorkCare offers opportunities primarily in occupational health roles, including per diem onsite clinic positions. Nurses provide direct care for workplace injuries and illnesses, conduct medical surveillance testing (audiometric, vision, spirometry, drug and alcohol testing), and manage workers' compensation and short-term disability cases. The Los Angeles position specifically involves night and weekend coverage in a per diem capacity. This is a non-traditional nursing environment focused on workforce health rather than acute hospital care, which may appeal to nurses seeking an alternative to bedside hospital roles.
WorkCare's mission is framed as 'From Hire to Retire: Your Partner in Workforce Health + Wellness.' The company is focused on prevention, early intervention, injury care, occupational health screening, workforce wellbeing, and absence management. As part of the APM Group, WorkCare emphasizes clinical excellence, service excellence, and trusted relationships with employer clients, investing in advanced technology and innovative care delivery models.
