About Us
The Occupational Health Program is located at Fannin Tower (Suite 2000). We provide health services and information to Baylor College of Medicine employees and learners. A few of our services are available to the public such as flu vaccinations. View a listing of our services below:
Flu Vaccines
Update as of November 6, 2026: The Occupational Health Program provides flu vaccinations at no cost for Baylor College of Medicine students, residents, staff and faculty. You can also receive a flu vaccine from your doctor, local clinic, or pharmacy. Whether you receive the vaccine through OHP or elsewhere, BCM persons will need to complete an attestation by November 30, 2026.
The high-dose (HD) flu vaccine is available for employees age 65 and older. If you are 65 or older and would like to receive the HD vaccine, it is available at the OHP clinic.
- Where: We are accepting walk-ins for the flu vaccine at our clinic during clinic hours.

Fit Test Scheduling and Training
Fit testing is done by the Office of Environmental Safety (OES). Fit testing is done annually. At the conclusion of a successful fit test, you will receive a laminated card listing your approved N95 respirator(s) manufacturer, model and size for your reference.
Medical Clearance
Medical clearance is required from the BCM Occupational Health Program (OHP) prior to N95 or other respirator fit testing. This only needs to be completed once, not annually.
You may have already completed your medical clearance, and if so, it does not need repeating. To see if you have, you can log in to check. Logging in requires your BCM credentials and may also require a VPN connection. If you have trouble logging into either system, please contact the IT Help Desk at 713-798-8737.
If you’ve been with BCM since April 2025, log in to https://www.bcm.edu/MyOHP. The Respirator Medical Evaluation is available in the Required Immunizations and Forms section from the home screen. It will show “Compliant” if it has been completed and reviewed.
If you’ve been with BCM prior to April 2025, log in to our Legacy system (OHPIS) instead. You’ll be able to see a complete service history of your records. If you see an entry labeled “Questionnaire-Resp.-TB,” then medical clearance is complete.
For questions about the medical clearance, contact OHP at occhealth@bcm.edu.
