1. You will receive, at no charge, protective health services that are required before you start your job.
2. Arrive & Check In - Our greeter will advise you of what stations you need to visit.
3. Visit the Health & Wellness stations to obtain your All Aboard new hire protective health services:
   1. Health Plus – Know Your "Healthy" Numbers: A representative will measure and record your blood pressure, height, weight, and Body Mass Index. Know Your Numbers information will help you get a jump start on your Health Risk Assessment (HRA). The HRA is the first step in Go for the Gold, our award-winning health promotion incentive program. You can earn up to $240 on your health insurance account by completing all three steps.
   2. Occupational Health Interview: An OHC nurse will review your health records (either uploaded or those you brought to All Aboard) and will discuss any services you may need or answer questions about the health screening.
   3. Occupational Health Injection Nurse: Our expert nurses will provide any needed immunizations or TB test.
   4. Blood Draw: Most people will stop here to have blood drawn to check varicella (chickenpox) immunity or other blood screening tests you may need. If you have a record of your immunity test or vaccination, there's no need to have this done. Upload that record or bring it with you to event.
   5. Check Out - After you complete your required health services and learn about your other benefits available, you will visit the check-out table.
4. TB Skin Test Follow-Up: TB skin tests placed at an All Aboard event must be read 2-3 days after placement. Any physician, nurse practitioner, or TB designee can read your TB skin test. If you do not have access to someone who is qualified to read your skin test, come to the Occupational Health Clinic.
5. Vaccination Follow-up: Some vaccines may need additional doses to complete the series. Please come to the Occupational Health Clinic to receive subsequent doses.
