MEDICAL/HOSPITAL REPORTS Sample Clauses

MEDICAL/HOSPITAL REPORTS. Firefighters, who seek medical attention for their injuries, must submit as part of the IOD package, a statement from the hospital or treating physician. This statement should indicate a diagnosis and whether the firefighter is able to remain on duty or is relieved of duty; and if relieved of duty, the length of time for which the firefighter is so relieved.
