Development of Medical and Occupational History Forms for the Navy Occupational Health Information Management System
Abstract
The development of the Medical and Occupational History Forms in support of the Navy's occupational, safety and health programs reflect a concerted effort to establish a comprehensive summary of an individual's medical, employment, and exposure history throughout his or her adult life and help establish a valuable baseline, The medical History Form consists of four sections: family history, past medical history, personal history, and review of systems. The Occupational History Form consists of three sections: occupational exposure inventory, environmental history, and chronological occupational exposure. The ascertainment of past medical and occupational histories requires a full understanding of a worker's current health status and the potential impact on health and future job performance. Cogent and timely use of such information contributes to more informed medical and administrative decision- making in terms of job placement and health risk. Additional keywords include; NOHIMS (Navy Occupational Health Information Management System).
