I am looking for a form that needs to be filled out before entry into hot zone. A medical pre entry form or something like that.
While I do not have it in the form format, here is what is on our forms. This is from our SOP's

Trav, email me and I will send you our pre and post entry form.
We currently only take entry and post entry vitals signs. All of our Haz Mat team members have yearly physicals with baseline vitals. We currently do not have any high vital sign bench marks for entry into any IDLH atmoshpheres. We reley on personal judgement on whether entry will be made. We do have a rehab unit that responds but may not arrive before our team enters.
Try this: Hit read only if it comes up.
