Occupational Medical Services – Princess Park Clinic

Pre Employment Medicals

Here at Princess Park Clinic we conduct pre-employment medical assessments on behalf of employers (Pre-placement Medicals). Each pre-employment medical assessment can be custom designed to suit specific industry needs and statutory requirements, they may include:

Audiometry screening
Spirometry (lung function)
Drug and Alcohol screening
ECG’s
Musculoskeletal assessments
Chest Xrays

We understand that time is valuable for organisations during a recruitment process and therefore we endeavour to have all medicals returned by COB the day of the medical, pending any investigations such as drug screens or Xrays, which are commonly back the following day.

Drug & Alcohol Screening

Employee drug testing is being carried out by organisations more commonly due to the general recognition that the use of alcohol and other recreational drugs can present a hazard in the workplace. Drug testing may also be useful in pre-employment assessments.

At Princess Park Clinic we conduct Drug and Alcohol Screening in accordance with the Australian Standards via our onsite pathologist Healthscope.
