CHELTENHAM ROAD OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE
Dr Christopher Champion and Dr Lindsay Roberts run the Occupational Health
Service at Cheltenham Road Surgery. The practice has been involved in occupational
health since 1985. Both Doctors hold the D.Occ.Med. (Diploma in Occupational
Health). Dr Champion has attended a faculty approved course for conducting Tier
3 and 4 HAVS assessments.
We do not have access to the “Standardised tests” for vibrotactile
and temperature threshold but have all the other equipment including the Purdue
pegboard, hand grip dynamometer and Semmes-Weinstein equipment. Our HAVS reports
would therefore not be for medico-legal purposes but would be used to advise
on diagnosis and an employee’s suitability to use of vibrating tools.
