When your background is cleared, HR will be in touch with you to schedule the date, time and location of this appointment.
This appointment will include a drug screen, TB blood test & immunization screening, and physical exam to confirm that you meet the physical requirements of the position. The exam typically lasts one hour and may include a blood draw or immunization update. If a chest x-ray is necessary due to a prior positive TB test, please allow an additional hour to complete that test at the hospital following the appointment.
