Pre-employment physicals are an important part of the hiring process. Our occupational health services include physical examinations by a licensed physician that are tailored to your specific business or industrial needs. During the exam, our physicians will evaluate medical history, examine patient thoroughly and conduct vision and hearing screening.

Federal regulations require regular physicals at initial hire and for annual recertification for all transportation personnel. Our medical team provides certified, comprehensive exams in compliance with Department of Transportation standards. Once the DOT physical is completed, drivers are issued a wallet size card to certify they have passed requirements necessary to drive commercial vehicles.

We offer fast and accurate drug screen panels to meet the requirements of business and industry specific drug and alcohol testing including DOT standards. Drug and alcohol screening is provided for both pre-employment testing and during the course of employment including random testing, return to duty and post emergency. Both instant and lab based testing of urine, hair follicle, breath and saliva for prescription and illegal drug detection is available.

Pulmonary Function Testing is a diagnostic test to measure lung function by measuring how quickly air is inhaled and expelled from the lungs. OSHA standards require certain employers have a written respiratory protection program for respirator use by employees that also includes medical evaluations and follow-up testing for employees that may require pulmonary evaluation. Stony Creek Urgent care offers on-site pulmonary function testing to make employee testing easier and more cost effective for businesses to comply with OSHA testing requirements.

Stony Creek Urgent Care offers audiometric testing of employee hearing as required by OSHA’s standards for noise exposure. All employees subject to this standard must be given baseline audiograms at initial hire and then examined again annually after hire. Each year hearing is evaluated and compared to the hiring baseline to determine whether there is hearing loss.

Vision Testing Services

Vision testing is essential to help prevent work place injuries and increase productivity. Stony Creek Urgent Care offers vision testing to help determine and ensure that employees can work in vision dependent positions that require good visual acuity.

PPD TB screening or tuberculosis skin testing is increasingly important for industries that have potential exposure to this health risk. OSHA guidelines allow for pre-employment testing of employees in high risk settings such as prisons, jails, nursing homes, homeless shelters and basically all health care workers. Some school districts now also require school personnel to submit to this testing. Our medical center can provide TB testing as part of pre-employment physical requirements for your business.
