EMT and Paramedic Physical Examinations evaluate the medical fitness of emergency medical service providers. These healthcare professionals must be physically capable of lifting patients, working in stressful environments, and making critical medical decisions.

The examination assesses cardiovascular health, physical strength and mobility, vision, hearing, and overall wellness. Many states and employers require regular medical certification for EMS personnel.

BlueHive provides EMS physicals through our network of occupational health providers who understand the unique demands of emergency medical services.
