About our Clinic
A Foster Carer Medical is a mandatory health assessment required by all local authorities and independent fostering agencies for prospective or renewing foster parents. The core purpose of this medical is to ensure that your current and past physical and mental health status is stable enough to allow you to provide a safe, consistent, and reliable care environment for vulnerable children.
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 30–60 minutes, as the doctor needs time to review your records, conduct the examination, and complete the detailed CoramBAAF form.
