What is Health Surveillance?

Health surveillance is a systematic approach to continuously monitoring the health of individuals or populations to identify potential risks, prevent disease, and promote well-being. It involves the collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data from various sources to track health trends, detect outbreaks of diseases, and assess the effectiveness of health interventions. Through health surveillance, public health officials can make informed decisions and implement strategies to protect communities, enhance public health outcomes, and ensure a safer, healthier environment for everyone.

Audiometry

Audiometry testing is a key component of occupational health, assessing an individual's hearing ability. Conducted in a controlled environment, it identifies hearing loss levels, enabling early intervention. Essential for industries with noise exposure, it ensures employee well-being, compliance with safety regulations, and maintains a productive, health-conscious workplace.

Spirometry

Spirometry testing is a tool that measures lung function, specifically the volume and flow of air that can be inhaled and exhaled. This non-invasive test is vital for detecting respiratory conditions early, ensuring workers are fit for their roles, and maintaining a healthy workforce in environments with potential respiratory hazards.

Hand arm vibration

Hand-arm vibration screening is essential for preventing Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS), a condition stemming from prolonged exposure to vibration from tools and machinery. Our screening helps identify at-risk employees early, allowing for timely intervention and adaptation of work practices to safeguard their health and ensure a safer, more compliant workplace environment.

Skin assesment

Skin assessments are a component of occupational health, aimed at detecting work-related skin disorders early. Our thorough evaluations identify signs of irritation, allergy, or disease, often caused by exposure to hazardous substances. Implementing preventive measures and promoting skin health, we help maintain a safe and healthy workplace, protecting employees' well-being.

Vision screening

Vision testing is an integral part of our health surveillance services, designed to assess and monitor the visual acuity and health of employees. Regular testing helps in early detection of vision problems, ensuring that workers have the necessary visual capabilities for their roles, leading to increased safety and productivity in the workplace.

Drug & Alcohol testing

Drug testing is a vital component of our comprehensive health surveillance program, aimed at ensuring a safe and productive work environment. Through accurate and confidential testing, we identify substance misuse, supporting both employer and employee by promoting health, safety, and well-being, while also complying with legal and regulatory requirements.
