Participation screening
A participation physical reviews health history and performs a focused examination to identify issues that may affect safe participation. It is a screening visit, not a substitute for ongoing primary care or an emergency evaluation.
When it may be considered
Your appointment
Bring required forms, identification, and relevant medical information
Review medications, allergies, past conditions, and family history
Complete the required focused examination
Discuss clearance, limitations, or follow-up needs
Expectations
Availability and documentation requirements can change. Call before visiting. A physical does not guarantee unrestricted clearance if findings require records, testing, or another clinician's evaluation.
Contact the office if symptoms change unexpectedly or you are unsure whether a reaction is normal. Emergency symptoms should be evaluated through urgent or emergency medical care.
Common questions
Bring the organization's form, corrective lenses, medication list, and relevant specialist or injury documentation.
For minors, required history and consent should be completed by a parent or legal guardian before the examination.
No. Additional information or evaluation may be needed before a clearance decision.
