About our Clinic
The adoption medical is a mandatory health assessment for all prospective adoptive parents, forming a critical part of the approval process. Conducted by your GP using the standard CoramBAAF Adult Health (AH) Form, its purpose is to ensure you are physically and mentally robust enough to meet the long-term needs of an adopted child. The assessment involves a review of your medical and mental health history, a physical examination, and consideration of your lifestyle. The final report is used by the agency’s Medical Advisor to provide an expert opinion on your longevity and capacity to parent, assuring the adoption panel that you can offer a stable home.
The medical assures the Adoption Panel that you are physically and mentally robust enough to meet the complex needs of a child throughout their dependency, focusing on your long-term health and parenting capacity.
The medical covers factors that impact long-term health, including BMI, smoking/vaping status, and alcohol consumption. You may be asked to stop smoking for a period (often 6 months) before being approved to adopt a young child.
The appointment usually takes 30β60 minutes, as the doctor needs time to review your records, conduct the examination, and complete the detailed CoramBAAF form.
