Our preplacement physicals are done by physicians and MLP's; this includes detailed medical/work/immunization history.
Nurses perform all pre-employment testing and give immunizations if needed.
 
I don't think nurses should be performing hands-on physical exams; I believe this was part of the question in the initial email.
 
Regards,

All pre-placements exams including and history and physical are performed by a physician or mid-level (NP, PA).

We do not have anyone here who is a ‘mid level’.

We do have professional registered nurses who are responsible for pre-employment screening and a seasoned OH APRN for any complex or unusual situations.

List,

 

Who performs pre-placement physicals at your facility (physicians, mid-levels, nurses)?

 

If physicians or mid-levels perform your physicals, why not nurses?

 

Thank you.
