Pre employment physical for VA hospital

Rating:
(votes: 0)


Does anyone know if there is a cut off for weight to work at the VA? Or ever heard of someone losing their job offer based the their weight?

The reason I'm asking is I have a physical coming up. I used to play football back in high school (def lineman) and in college and I am quite large. I still lift weights and I'm 5'11" 260lbs. I have no chronic illnesses and annually get sick 1x. Should I be concerned? I'm trying to get into the VA ICU in Norcal.

Any input? advice?

Thanks.
No, weight is not a factor. No one that I have ever heard of has lost their job because of weight. However, a nurse that worked in a community hospital lost her nurse manager position because she "didn't project the image" that the hospital wanted in a manager.
