Testing for drugs and other prohibited substances
The ENPQ has a “Zero Tolerance” Policy Concerning the Use of and the Offences Related to Drugs and Other Prohibited Substances.
Consequently, you will be tested for drugs and other prohibited substance at the time of your medical examination. However, you will not be tested for cannabis.
Furthermore, the ENPQ could require that you be specifically tested for drugs and other prohibited substances if it has reasonable grounds to believe that the “Zero Tolerance” policy is not respected during training.
If the case arises, a confirmation test shall be administered for each drug detected and the related fees are your responsibility. Please refer to the “Zero Tolerance” Policy Concerning the Use of and the Offences Related to Drugs and Other Prohibited Substances.
If you fail this test, your program will be automatically interrupted.
Refer to the “Zero Tolerance” Policy Concerning the Use of and Offences Related to Drugs and Other Prohibited Substances(51 KB).

If you have undergone eye surgery, you need to have the Postoperative medical examination report(509 KB) filled out by the physician who performed the surgery and must bring it with you to your appointment.
In the event that further testing is required
In order to ensure that your condition adequately meets the requirements of the ENPQ Basic Training Program in Police Patrolling, specific additional tests or examinations may be recommended by the medical evaluator. We will inform you of the applicable fees, if any.
Finally, once the medical file is completed and all the results are in, Medisys will forward a medical examination report to the ENPQ. Only the applicants whose file presents an anomaly will be contacted by a Medisys nurse.

Fortuitous event
If you are unable to show up for your medical examination or your physical fitness evaluation (for which you will be asked to attend), due to fortuitous events, you can present a written request for a deferral to the Registrar’s office, who, after analyzing your request, could give you the authorization to attend another evaluation session on a new date. This measure is exceptional and does not apply to travel and other work-related constraints.
If your request for a deferral is denied and you decide not to show up to either one of these evaluations,, your admission will no longer be valid for the current school year. You will have to submit a new application for admission for the next school year.
Examples of fortuitous events: death of a next of kin, illness, court testimony.
