Yeah every healthcare job I’ve had has required a physical where the most intensive item is one squat + stand back up but also includes:
basic push/pull against light force applied by the examiner
a hearing and vision test that includes a check for color vision
of course drug testing and fingerprinting.
I also have to provide my shot records and provide any waivers for a specific allergy to something like eggs (in which case I still have to get the flu shot I just have to get a different one that’s slightly more expensive for the company to purchase).
Then they’ll give me boosters for everything I don’t have a recent enough record of and either place a PPD with a reading appointment or (hopefully) just draw a quantiferon gold.
Oh and I have to be fit tested for a respirator (which I better not ever run into in psychiatry buuut).
So yeah I have to be more physically fit to wash granny’s butt and babysit depressed people than the president needs to be to lead a country.
