IMMIGRATION MEDICALS INFORMATION SHEET
You do not need to bring immigration forms with you. The medical is completed on line.
You will be required to have two appointments:
The first appointment you will see the administrator for a photo and to sign a declaration, followed by the Practice Nurse (please allow approx.1 hour for your appointment). If you require blood test and x-ray allow an additional 1 hour.
Later in the week you will see the Doctor.
Payment of $300 must be made when the appointments are booked and the application form filled out. (credit card, eftpos, cash or cheque accepted for payment)
Any cancellations or changes to bookings must be made at least 24 hours prior to the appointment. A fee of $150 will be charged for non-attendance.
The applicant must bring the following to the nurse and doctor appointments: § Current valid passport § Glasses or contact lenses § Details of any prescription medicines you are currently taking § Details of hospital admissions and surgeries (dates if possible) § Specialist reports if you have any known medical conditions § Family medical history if known |
Please be aware of the following: § Women aged 45 years and over must have a breast examination at the Doctors appointment. Please feel free to bring a chaperone or let the nurse know if you would like one. § Children under 16 years of age must have a parent or legal guardian present. § A urine sample will be taken during your first consult with the nurse. Women, please do not make your nurse appointment at a time when you are menstruating as this will affect the result. § Children – under 11 do not usually require a chest X-ray, under 15 do not usually require blood tests, under 5 do not require urine samples unless there is a previous clinical indication. |
There are separate charges for blood tests and X-ray
(both the above are payable on the day by cash, eftpos or credit card.)
Please contact Bayfair Doctors and advise the nurse if you require an interpreter. If the nurse questions your ability to interpret questions you may be asked to re-book at a time that an interpreter is available.
This must be an independent interpreter, NOT a family member or friend.
If you have any concerns regarding the immigration medical, please feel free to contact one of the nurses directly on Phone: 07 5726800
We look forward to being of assistance to you.
