Take Care Health Systems Celebrates Grand Opening of Franklin, Tenn. Office

FRANKLIN, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Take Care Health Systems, the largest provider of worksite health and wellness centers and convenient care clinics in the country, will hold a grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony at its new Franklin office on Monday, Nov. 10. The Williamson County-Franklin Chamber of Commerce will co-host the event, which will be attended by Mayor Rogers Anderson, Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Nancy Conway and United Way of Williamson County President and CEO Ann Buchanan.

Take Care Health Systems is part of Walgreens Health and Wellness division, and consists of two businesses: Employer Solutions, the largest and most comprehensive provider of workplace health, pharmacy, fitness and wellness services, and Consumer Solutions, Take Care Clinics located at Walgreens drugstores throughout the country. The Health and Wellness division was formed in May 2008 following Walgreens acquisition of the two largest companies in worksite health management, including formerly Nashville-based CHD Meridian Healthcare.

The 50,000 square foot facility is home to 150 current colleagues with space for upwards of 250 colleagues in the future. Amenities at the facility include a fitness center, training room and indoor and outdoor break area. As a sign of commitment to the growing division, Walgreens purchased the building earlier this year.

“This is a very exciting day for our company. We are proud to relocate key functions of Take Care Health Systems, including the legacy CHD Meridian business, to Franklin to support the future growth of Walgreens Health and Wellness division,” said Peter Hotz, divisional vice president of Walgreens and president of Take Care Health Employer Solutions. “Further, we are excited that our workplace health and pharmacy services and in-store health clinics are expanding in the Nashville-area and beyond. We look forward to becoming part of the Franklin community and continuing to give back to the Metro Nashville-area through good corporate citizenship and job creation.”

The Franklin office is the largest support center within Take Care Health Systems. Take Care Health Employer Solutions services 180 clients across 364 sites. There are 277 Take Care Clinics located at Walgreens drugstores across the country, with 13 located in the Nashville area and a total of 19 clinics in Tennessee.
