Occupational Screening

During occupational screening, there are various tests we may recommend. You can expect to receive testing related to vision, hearing, EKG, spirometry, OSHA questionnaire, qualitative fit testing, chest x-rays, and more. For your appointment, please have your picture ID, test order or authorization, office notes from primary care doctor, names and dosage of medications, and recent diagnostic test results. An occupational health screening is the process of evaluating an employee’s mental and physical fitness to perform their job tasks and identifies potential health risks, ensuring that they can do their duties without harming themselves or others. These screenings may involve drug tests, physical exams, functional ability tests, and more.

Our team can evaluate a person’s health to determine if they are a match for the physical demands of the job. These screenings can uncover pre-existing conditions that may worsen by the job or find vulnerabilities to specific workplace hazards. These tests are tailored to job responsibilities, such as lift tests for physically demanding jobs or an assessment of respiratory function if working around hazardous substances. Our screenings often entail taking vital signs, hearing and vision checks, functional assessments, and sometimes drug screenings. Overall, the benefits of an occupational screening is that it confirms the person can safely perform the tasks that are required of them.

Pre-Employment Medical Examinations

Before a new employee begins work, it’s important to verify that they are medically fit for the job’s physical demands. We conduct pre-employment exams designed to identify any health conditions that may limit performance or increase risk of injury. These screenings often include physical evaluations, vital sign checks, and reviews of medical history. For certain roles, we can tailor assessments to meet industry-specific requirements, such as those in transportation, manufacturing, or healthcare. We’ve been providing our services since 1980, and we’re just one call away!

Drug And Alcohol Testing

Maintaining a safe workplace requires reliable substance testing programs. Our team performs drug and alcohol screenings using certified methods that meet both federal and state standards. We offer pre-employment, random, and post-incident testing to support company safety policies. Test results are processed efficiently to minimize delays in hiring or returning employees to work. By including this as part of our occupational screening process, employers gain confidence that their workforce remains focused and compliant with workplace safety standards.

DOT And Regulatory Examinations

For employees in regulated industries—such as commercial driving or transportation—specific medical exams are required by the Department of Transportation (DOT) and other agencies. We provide certified DOT physicals, vision and hearing tests, and related evaluations that meet federal guidelines. These exams confirm that workers are fit for duty and meet all legal medical requirements. Our providers maintain up-to-date knowledge of these regulations so both employers and employees can remain in full compliance. For conducting clinical trials and other services, we have over 15 years of experience.

Return-to-Work And Fitness-for-Duty Evaluations

When an employee has been out due to illness or injury, a medical evaluation helps determine if they are ready to return safely. Our return-to-work and fitness-for-duty exams focus on confirming physical readiness while identifying any limitations that might need temporary workplace adjustments. These assessments protect both the employee and the employer by reducing the likelihood of re-injury and promoting a safe transition back to regular duties.

Immunizations And Health Surveillance

For workplaces that require regular health monitoring, we provide immunizations, tuberculosis testing, and other surveillance services. These screenings help prevent the spread of illness and maintain compliance with health and safety protocols, especially in healthcare, public service, and education settings. Regular monitoring also allows us to identify emerging health issues early, keeping teams healthy and minimizing disruptions to productivity. Through comprehensive occupational screening, we support both individual health and the long-term success of each organization we serve.

Our approach is focused, reliable, and designed to keep both employers and workers protected. Whether you’re hiring new staff, meeting industry regulations, or managing return-to-work programs, we’re here to help.
