UAB Pre-employment physical??????

It sounds like the physicals I've done for my jobs down here in California. Except I also have to pee in a cup so they can check for drug use

That does seem a little excessive to me. I asked a couple of recent hires and they said all they were required to do was tb skin test, UDS, and either proof of heb b series or take the hep b series.

I just did a pre-employment physical for a hospital that I worked at for 10 years. Had been gone about a 1 1/2 years. I had to do: UDS, TB, titers for mumps, and then a physical consisting of lungs, abd, gait, bending and twisting. It was kinda bizaare but I passed.

The pre-employment physical.........

They do TB skin tests.......as for the blood work.......they are just testing for your titers for Hep B, if you have had the series......and MMR. They do a UDS, and you see an NP who does a basic physical to make sure that you have good range of motion, she listens to your lungs and heart......... thats all.

If you have had a titer drawn before, then all you have to do is fax them a copy...... same with a skin test.......if you have had one this year....fax them a copy. They wont do a chest x-ray unless you have previously tested positive on a skin test.

When do you start, or have you already??

whats UDS?

UDS = urine drug screen
