Did you know school physicals are required annually before the start of school each year? They are required for children and young adults of all ages. They ensure your child is healthy and have all their vaccinations up-to-date.
With physicals it allows your child to build their medical history so that their doctor can keep a record of your child’s development and progress over the course of time. Not only does this keep on top of emerging problems but stay informed on past illnesses and immunizations.
When receiving a school physical form, it allows your child’s pediatrician to accurately fill out the form based on record from growth and development from immunizations as well as health check-up throughout the year.
