Medical assessments are carried out to ensure an individual is fit to work in a specific environment, travel to a specific country, ensure the environment is not harming an individual and for health promotional reasons.

As well as carrying out the full range of statutory medicals, Abermed can create individually tailored medicals.

Medical assessments can be carried out at our own medical centres or onsite. Abermed offers standardisation across the UK and has the capacity to carry out large numbers of medicals with easy availability, including online booking.

Our extensive network of third party medical providers gives coverage across the whole of the UK. Abermed also carries out medicals for international health care providers who do not have medical centres in Scotland.

Communicating results quickly and accurately is of course a key part of the service and we now offer online certificates, faxed certificates and telephone confirmation of failed medicals, alcohol tests or non‐negative drug screens.

Medical assessments offered include:

• Food Handlers Medicals

If the Medical Assessment you require is not included in the above list, please contact us at Abermed and we will be pleased to advise you of availability.

Abermed provides medicals when and where you need them and ensures the results of those medicals are communicated back to you in line with your expectations.

Food Handlers Medicals

Food Handlers Medicals are carried out for personnel working in the catering industry onshore or offshore. Catering medicals are very similar to OGUK Offshore Medicals but are more in depth and include examination of skin, ears, eyes and throat. A faeces sample is sent to the laboratory to be tested for parasites or enteric pathogens.
