Stage 4 - Medical Examination
The role of a police officer is often physically and, equally, mentally demanding. Forces assess candidates medical state to ensure that they are suitable for the role, both now and in the future. At present forces seek to recruit individuals until the age of 55 or 30 years services (whichever is sooner).
Forces therefore adopt a stringent medical criteria to eliminate officers retiring early on medical grounds as this is expensive. They also have a duty of care for each employee, thus will not allow individuals to join whom have medical conditions which could pose harm or danger to themselves or their colleagues. An example of such a medical condition which is likely to prevent you from joining is insulin-dependant diabetes mellitus (IDDM).

Hi David, just to let you know I have now passed my assessment course. Thanks for all your help and giving me a second chance to benefit from your expertise, as first time round my revision was poor. Anyone reading this take David's course if you really want to pass and make sure you revise all the handouts you are given. Thanks Anthony - received 04/07/10
