Medical exams for lifeguard/scuba diving

Just wondering if anyone has had a medical exam for lifeguarding or scuba diving? I have an interest in both and was wondering what all is involved.

Never had an exam for either but I would think it would be just a standard physical exam

I worked at a Boy Scout camp for 2 years while in College as a lifeguard. I had to provide evidence of a physical exam and update of vaccinations. I was required to use a clinic in town prior to starting work. The exam was very thorough beginning with blood work and urinalysis. Those were required before being seen. The appointment followed a week later and was very thorough. Undress to my briefs, get weighed, and then meet the doctor who checked every inch: heart, lungs, reflexes, abdomen, genitals including a hernia exam and DRE. I had to receive a tetanus shot at the end.

I have found this very very interesting form:

It includes anus, rectum, sphinchter tone, genitourinary, and detailed reflexes: babinski, abdominal and creamsteric. I haven't found any other form that specifies the cremasteric reflex! I have asked some people on reddit about it, and the thoroughness of the exam is dependent on the doctor doing it.

@Nick321 do you remember what reflexes were tested on you?

All recall is that I was fully exposed when it came time for checking my genitals including a very thorough feel of each testicle and examination of my penis. The DRE was intense. Then again, I wasn't accustomed to having that done! Reflexes seemed to be done in a standard way but I also wasn't a diver so that may have involved other things.

My sports exams including clearance to enroll in a WSI course were pretty basic. Heart, lungs, history, etc. hernia checks, but no other intimate checks

If you are just diving recreationally with PADI or NAUI, there is no health exam. If you start getting into technical diving, commercial, military, etc. you will start to get into some fairly intense exams because of how much an effect the altered pressure/gas mix can have on the human body.
