These exams assess an individual’s physical and mental fitness to perform transportation-related tasks, ensuring that they can operate vehicles safely and effectively.

 

Key Features of DOT Physicals

2. Thorough Assessment: DOT physicals include a comprehensive evaluation of vision, hearing, cardiovascular health and other critical health indicators. This thorough assessment helps ensure that employees are physically capable of performing their duties without compromising safety.

 

3. Reduced Risk of Incidents: By ensuring that healthcare professionals meet the necessary physical standards, DOT physicals contribute to a safer work environment, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries both for employees and patients.

 

Non-DOT Physicals

 

In addition to DOT physicals, MyHRScreens offers non-DOT physical examinations tailored for healthcare professionals in non-regulated positions. These comprehensive exams are designed to evaluate an individual's overall health and fitness for duty.

 

Key Features of Non-DOT Physicals

 

1. Holistic Health Assessment: Non-DOT physicals provide a complete evaluation of an individual’s health, including medical history, a physical examination and necessary lab tests. This holistic approach ensures that healthcare professionals are not only fit for their roles, but also supported in their overall well-being.
