What It Involves
Checks your reflexes, coordination, balance and sensation - a screen for anything that could affect fine motor control, working at height, or emergency evacuation ability. It's a standard part of HSE commercial diving medicals given the specific neurological risks of diving, and appears in firearms medicals where steady coordination is safety-relevant.
What to Bring
Valid photo ID (passport or driving licence) (and 2 more items)
Frequently Asked Questions
No - it's a series of simple reflex, balance and coordination checks (like following a moving object with your eyes, or a light tap on a tendon), not invasive at all.
HSE commercial diving medicals include it as standard given diving-specific neurological risks; firearms medicals also weigh coordination and neurological history.
