The ‘Working at Heights Medical’ essentially involves all the processes involved in a critical safety worker medical (Safety Critical Worker Medical – £100 – Occupational Medicals – Cherries Clinic Medicals | Healthcare Private GP | Slough (cherriesmedicalclinic.co.uk) but the additional requirements involve a particular health questionnaire alluding to Working at Heights Medical protocol that must be completed plus assessment of hand grip with our dynanometer machine. Therefore, if you are unsure whether you require just a critical safety worker medical or a particular Working at Heights Medical, we would suggest checking with your employer or line manager.
Given the vast majority of assessments that would need to be covered, your appointment can last up to 1 hour. Providing that the assessment has been passed, a certificate for medical fitness will be provided to you before you leave the medical clinic.
In situations, where perhaps you haven’t met the threshold for a pass (i.e. a significantly high blood pressure, concerns around sleep apnoea, abnormal lung spirometry results or poor visual assessment) then Dr Anwar will sit down and explain the next course of action as well as write any referral letters (free of charge) to your corresponding GP to action. Once it is deemed that you have met the requirements, then do contact the clinic again so that an appointment could be rebooked for issuing your medical fitness certificate (providing that you have shown evidence that requirements have now been met).
