At Brookwater Medical Centre, we understand that pre-employment medical examinations are an essential part of the hiring process for many job seekers. These medical exams are designed to evaluate your overall health and fitness for the job you’re applying for. If risks are identified, these can be discussed with one of our GPs to reduce the chances of becoming injured at work.
Here’s what you can expect when you come to our medical centre for a pre-employment medical examination:
Comprehensive Health Assessment: You’ll start by filling out a health questionnaire that covers your medical history, lifestyle habits, and any current health concerns. Our healthcare professionals will then use this information to conduct a comprehensive health assessment that includes a physical examination, measurements such as height, weight, blood pressure, and pulse rate. They’ll also check your eyesight, hearing, and reflexes.
Functional Capacity Evaluation: Depending on the nature of the job you’re applying for, we may also perform a functional capacity evaluation to assess your physical capabilities. This may include lifting and carrying weights, reaching and bending, and other tasks related to the job.
Additional Testing: In some cases, we may need to perform additional testing to evaluate your health and fitness for the job. This may include blood tests, drug and alcohol testing, and other diagnostic tests as required.
At Brookwater Medical Centre, we’re committed to providing high-quality healthcare services to our patients. Our experienced healthcare professionals will work with you to ensure that your pre-employment medical examination is conducted efficiently and accurately, so you can move forward with confidence in your job search.
