Article 3 Medical Examination Instructions for Irish Immigrants

Under normal circumstances, the physical examination of Irish immigrants focuses on two aspects: on the one hand, whether the applicant has a serious infectious disease that affects public safety, and on the other hand, whether it is possible to cause chronic diseases that may lead to high medical expenses for the public.

Serious infectious diseases that affect public safety, such as tuberculosis and AIDS, are more common. In recent years, diseases such as tuberculosis are quite common in China. Many people don't have typical symptoms such as low fever, cough and emaciation after infection, and they don't know until X-ray shows lung calcification. The infection rate of tuberculosis in Ireland is very low, so tuberculosis is one of the serious diseases that Irish immigrants attach importance to in physical examination.

However, this does not mean that people who are unfortunately infected with tuberculosis can never immigrate or study in Ireland. Usually they need sputum culture for three days in a row. If the result is negative, it proves that there is no living Mycobacterium tuberculosis in their sputum, which is not contagious to the public, and X-rays can be rechecked three months later to prove that their tuberculosis focus is stable and there is no recurrence.

Therefore, after severe infectious diseases are generally completely cured, it is no problem to immigrate without affecting public health and safety.

What is more difficult to deal with is chronic diseases. In fact, chronic diseases are often not very serious, but because maintaining physical condition may increase Ireland's medical insurance expenditure, the immigration application will not be passed. The most common chronic disease is diabetes.

Usually, after a chronic disease is detected, it will be reported to the immigration officer according to the regulations, and the immigration officer will decide how to deal with it. If you are diagnosed with a chronic disease, but you want to emigrate, it is not completely impossible to turn over. You can usually find a medical expert recognized by the Immigration Bureau for disease analysis. The theme of the whole analysis revolves around "you can't spend much money on this disease" and you still have the opportunity to apply.

No matter what kind of immigration program you apply for, the process of physical examination is basically the same. Specific physical examination items include blood test, urine test and chest X-ray.

Generally, applicants receive medical examination notice first. Specific physical examination items and precautions will be marked on the notice. After receiving the letter, the applicant can go to the designated hospital to find the relevant doctor to start the physical examination. However, it should be noted that not every hospital can have a physical examination. Irish immigration officers only accept medical reports from hospitals and doctors designated on the medical form. The scope of these hospitals and doctors is valued by the Irish Immigration Department. As long as it is not the physical examination results of designated medical institutions, they are not satisfied.

The general physical examination is valid for one year, so simply speaking, immigrants need a physical examination for one year, and they can't miss the time, otherwise the physical examination will be invalid. If it exceeds the validity period of one year, you have to go to the designated hospital for physical examination.

Generally speaking, the health report after the physical examination will not be directly given to the applicant, and the physical examination doctor will not directly and clearly tell you what problems may affect the immigration procedures. They can only tell you about health problems from the perspective of "care" for your attention in the future.
