ExperCARE Department of Education Physicals
Never settling for just OK. Healthcare that’s real.
As schools gear up for the fall, the importance of ensuring that our children’s daily commute is safe cannot be overstated. School districts across the city are actively seeking new bus drivers to cover essential routes, a role that is crucial for the smooth operation of our educational system. At ExperCARE, we recognize the significant responsibility that bus drivers take on when they transport our most valuable loved ones—our children. To support this, we offer thorough health screenings and DOT (Department of Transportation) physicals, which are mandatory for all school bus drivers to maintain their certification.

What happens during a DOT Physical?
A state-licensed physician will check several aspects of your overall health, as well as several specific to the qualifications of the job. You will be required to bring a copy of your medical history as well as a list of current medications that may show up on a drug screen. If you require glasses, corrective lenses or hearing aids to maintain full vision and hearing, they will need to be brought to your appointment as well. Your physician will check the following:
How long should I wait between DOT Physicals?
A DOT Physical is valid for up to two years after it is completed and you have passed. However, your employer may require more frequent examinations based on changing requirements of the position, risk factors such as increased blood pressure and new certifications. Your employer can require an updated DOT Physical at any time, including monthly, annually or biannually.
Why are DOT Physicals important for school bus drivers?
School bus drivers are required to undergo DOT physicals in order to make sure each driver is physically able to withstand the job, including spending long periods of time sitting and safely operating a motor vehicle. Stress is common in drivers due to the level of concentration required to keep the bus moving safely, especially with students potentially causing distractions by yelling, jumping around and throwing objects about. Another side effect of stress is high blood pressure, which can lead to further health issues down the line. By undergoing periodic DOT physicals, your doctor will be able to keep an eye on your blood pressure and provide exercises to reduce your stress levels.
All expenses must be paid at the time of your exam. We accept cash, Visa, MasterCard and Discover.
