I am a registered
nurse, and yes, I am a Lockheed Martin employee!
Lockheed Martin continues the innovative philosophy that was the
creative force behind the establishment of our foundation company 100 years
ago, the Glen L. Martin Company. Today, Lockheed Martin is on the cutting edge
of health care delivery. That’s right – health care!
Twenty-seven Wellness Centers have been
established on Lockheed Martin campuses across the United States to provide
free urgent care services to employees. By offering convenient, confidential
campus-based medical care, the employee and the company benefit – employees
will be healthier and the company reduces health care costs.
It’s exciting to be part of a business in its infancy! In October
2010, I joined Lockheed Martin and began work in a construction zone – the
Sunnyvale Wellness Center was in
full renovation. Over the next three months walls were constructed, offices
created, carpet laid and equipment ordered. A state-of-the-art clinic replaced
the previous Medical Services. Two-and-a-half years later, we treat illnesses
and injuries and offer the latest in preventive care to 6,000 Sunnyvale
employees.

one of our monthly health lectures.
Innovation created the Wellness Centers. Our values “Do What’s
Right,” “Respect Others” and “Perform with Excellence” will ensure the
longevity of campus-based urgent care, a healthy workforce and a profitable
business.
