Summer Check-Ups

Summer Break is the Perfect Time for Your Child’s Well-Child Visit and Sports Physical

School is out, and summer is a great time to take care of important health checkups for your child. Southeast Community Health Systems (SCHS) is here to help you make the most of the break by offering well-child visits and summer sports physicals to get your child ready for the new school year.

Use Summer to Catch Up on Well-Child Visits

A well-child visit is a complete checkup that tracks your child’s growth and development. It includes a physical exam, immunizations, and screenings, along with time to talk about your child’s nutrition, behavior, and health needs.

With no school schedules to juggle, summer is the perfect time to get it done without missing class time.

Plan Ahead with a Summer Sports Physical

Many schools and sports programs require a physical before students can join a team. A sports physical helps ensure your child is healthy enough for physical activity and identifies any issues that could affect their performance or safety. SCHS offers sports physicals throughout the summer so your child will be ready to go when school starts.

Easy Access Through Local Clinics and School-Based Health Centers

SCHS offers services at multiple locations, including school-based health centers in Zachary, Kentwood, and Greensburg. These centers provide an easy and convenient option for families to access care close to home.
