7 Salient Facts About NYSC Mandated Medical Certificate

Facts About NYSC Mandated Medical Certificate are some of the things you might not know about the certificate. Read on to discover.

In time past, even till early 2017, Prospective Corps Members just walk to camp without any medical certificate or any fitness prove. And I think that’s cool for many.

However, the leadership of the National Youth Service Corps has mandated all Prospective Corps Members to obtain a fitness medical certificate before they will be allowed to the orientation camp.

To some, it’s a new development, to some it’s better and too many, it’s a lot of stress. NYSC forum presents to you 7 Salient Facts About NYSC Mandated Medical Certificate.

7 Salient Facts About NYSC Mandated Medical Certificate

Below are facts you might not know about the NYSC medical certificate.

1. The Controversies about the death of Corps Members

The last batch has witnessed the death of several Corps Members. We really lost some gallant Corpers to one disease or the other. May their soul rest in peace.

Most people believe that those Corpers died as a result of the hard training in camp issued by the Soldiers. Many parents would say their child was okay before he left for orientation camp. That is the major reason that led to the idea of the mandated medical certificate. They just need it as a proof that PCMs are fit for orientation camp.

2. Only Government and Military hospitals are recognized

Government hospitals are hospitals owned by the federal or any of the state governments and any of its agencies.

These include hospitals owned by the Military, Police, Customs, Federal Medical Centres, Teaching Hospitals, General Hospitals, Government Specialist Hospitals, etc.

Using a private hospital or a family hospital if there is anything like that would land you in a greater stress when you are not allowed to enter the orientation camp.

3. Can I Use My Friend Own?

No, you cannot use your friends own. Your name have to be on the test result. It’s really so funny someone will want to photocopy their friends medical report and think it will be accepted.

4. It Is Mandatory

Yes it was Mandated by the NYSC management. Remember NYSC is under the Military, and if the Military issue a mandate, any Civilian that fails to comply is on his/her own.

5. Only Doctors Employed by the Government or Military Hospital can sign the Cert for you.

The Certificate of Medical Fitness must be issued ONLY by a doctor under the employment of a Government or Military Hospital. Don’t carry out the tests in a Government laboratory and get a private hospital to issue you the certificate. Such certificates would be unfit for purpose.

6. It Can Be Easier

    Hello
    Please I noticed during registration that my state of origin was not correct. I guessed the sch made a mistake about it when sending the name to NYSC. And I’m unable to edit or replace it when registering. I have gone to my school to complain and they said they can only do little that I should I write a letter which I wrote.
    Please my big question is, will that not affect me in camp? Will it not cause embarrassment for me during registration? Can I take along the origin state of origin certificate for clarification?
    Thanks in anticipation

  15. Please I didn’t put a third name on my med fitness certificate. Hope it’s no problem. Just my surname and first name
