About this file

This is a Medical Clearance History Form developed by the CDC's Office of Safety, Security, and Asset Management for evaluating the medical fitness of personnel for deployment on CDC/ATSDR response teams.

The form collects comprehensive medical information including past medical and surgical history, family medical history, social history (tobacco, alcohol, and drug use), physical activity level, current medications, and allergies. It requires documentation of immunization history with specific vaccines mandated for different team types: Tetanus/Diphtheria, Hepatitis A and B, Measles/Mumps/Rubella, Varicella, TB skin testing, and optional Influenza and Smallpox vaccinations. A 50-item symptom review covering major body systems requires yes/no responses with detailed explanations for affirmative answers. The form explicitly outlines deployment-related stressors and hazards including rapid deployment to any location, extended deployment periods, separation from family, physical demands, exposure to infectious organisms and chemical/radiologic agents, personal protective equipment requirements, and for pregnant women, potential fetal risks.

The evaluation requires employee certification that responses are accurate and acknowledgment of potential fitness limitations. A personal physician may be required to provide written assessment of deployment capability. Required medical tests include EKG for personnel 50 years or older, spirometry with respirator clearance (OSHA form), and pulse oximetry. A provider's physical examination form and provider statement documenting mental and physical capability for deployment complete the clearance process. All detailed test results must be attached to the medical record, with certification and signature requirements from both the employee and evaluating healthcare provider.

Please read and sign the following statement. If you feel you need additional information or have any questions regarding the medical risks of deployment or questions regarding the medical clearance process, please ask the CDC Occupational Health Clinic medical staff.

Deployment on a CDC/ATSDR response team could involve physical and emotional stressors and hazards, including but not limited to:

• rapid deployment to any location upon short notice

• deployment lengths lasting weeks to months

• separation from family and friends

• personal security issues

• sleep deprivation, time zone changes and irregular sleep schedules

• irregular quality, availability and variety of meals

• exposures to extremes of climate and altitude

• limited availability of immediate medical care

• lack of refrigeration or electricity for medications, medical supplies or equipment

• increased physical demands related to prolonged standing, walking, or exertion

• routine use of personal protective equipment such as respirators and protective clothing

• possible exposure to infectious organisms, chemical or radiologic agents

• risk related to allergy, adverse events or side effects from medications, vaccines or other required pharmaceutical interventions

• for pregnant women, possible risk to a developing fetus

• lifting and moving containers, equipment and boxes (approximately 40-50 lbs, and often repetitively)

• insect bites / stings

• loud noises (machinery and aircraft)

I have read the above medical questionnaire and statements. I have answered all questions accurately and to the best of my knowledge. I realize that further information or testing may be needed from my private physician or other sources to clarify my fitness for this duty. I know of no condition which would impair my ability to function fully on a CDC response team now or for the following year.
