Fire Department Wellness Support
BaySport partners with fire departments to keep firefighters healthy, medically qualified, and ready for duty. Our Annual FireFighter Physical & Wellness Program aligns with the NFPA 1582 compliance standards and the Wellness-Fitness Initiative.

Our Services Are Unmatched
BaySport brings the fire department wellness program to firefighters AT the fire station.
Delivering services at the fire station increases program participation, reduces apprehension associated with clinic-based assessments, and lowers potential participation costs by providing services when personnel are on duty.
The Program Scope of Services includes the physical exam components for:
Sworn Safety or Active Firefighters
Administrative or Non-Safety Employee
Pre-Employment Candidates.
We work with Fire Department personnel to develop a flexible schedule that covers each shift. Participants who cannot attend an in-person exam day can schedule a physical exam at a BaySport clinic in the Bay Area.
Upon completion of the assessment, each participant receives a Physician Summary that includes detailed descriptions of all test and laboratory results, along with specific recommendations for any necessary medical follow-up. Results are delivered to each participant via a private, HIPAA-compliant secure email address to enhance privacy.
