Immigrants at Ellis Island were screened through a systematic process that included medical examinations and legal inspections. Upon arrival, they underwent a health check by doctors who looked for signs of contagious diseases, and those who failed were often quarantined or sent back. Legal inspectors assessed their documentation and asked questions to determine their eligibility to enter the United States. This process aimed to ensure that immigrants could contribute positively to society and were not a burden on public resources.
