Procedures for the Respirator Medical & Fit Test
Painters Union Management Partnership (PUMP) Program
Step 1 – Medical Evaluation
You must have had a respirator medical evaluation within the last three years. If you already have a current medical evaluation on file at the Training Center, skip to Step 2.
 
If you haven't had a medical evaluation with a Providence Occupational Health clinic within the last three years, you or your employer will need to schedule an appointment. There are three locations listed below. For billing, this program is paid for by PUMP.
 
To schedule an appointment, phone 503-216-7960.
 
Tell the appointment person:
1) you are a painter
2) which company you work for
3) you would like a "respirator exam" offered by the PUMP program

When the medical evaluation is complete, you will be given a Respirator Medical Certification letter explaining respirator limitations, if any.
 
Step 2 – Respirator Fit Test
Call the Regional Training Center and schedule a respirator training session and fit test.
To schedule an appointment, phone 503-287-4856. Bring your Medical Certification letter if we do not already have it on file.
 
The training session is a user-friendly computer program developed by the Oregon Health Sciences University and requires about one hour to complete.
 
When you have finished the computer training, you will be given a fit test. If this is your first fit test, a respirator will be issued to you. If you are returning for the annual training and fit test, bring your respirator with you.
