FARMINGTON — Franklin Memorial Hospital’s Occupational Health Department now has providers certified by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration to perform Department of Transportation examinations for commercial carriers.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration issued a rule, effective May 21, that requires health care professionals who perform commercial driver’s license physicals get special training to become certified medical examiners.
FMH occupational health staff members Michael Rowland, MD, and Joseph Conrad, PA-C, were recently certified and listed on the FMCSA registry. Medical examiners must receive training every five years and pass a re-certification test every 10 years to stay on the National Registry.
Occupational Health staff can be reached at 207-779-2367 to answer questions regarding physical standards and drug testing, and to make appointments.
