It’s Not Too Late to Get Your Sports Physical!

Here are a few tips to help parents prepare:

1. Bring the sports physical form from your child’s school, and complete your section before arrival.

2. A parent or authorized guardian must attend the appointment with the child.

3. If your child had a physical last year, make sure it’s been at least 12 months. Most insurance plans cover one physical per year.

Last night, we hosted our very first CPR & First Aid Class: Kid’s Edition!

Led by our clinical instructor Tra, 24 children and 11 adults learned life-saving hands-only CPR techniques for both adults and infants. Participants then had the opportunity to practice on mannequins, gaining a better understanding of the depth, speed, and strength needed to perform effective CPR.

While we hope they never have to use these skills, we’re proud and confident that they’ll be prepared if the need ever arises!

Due to popular demand, we are looking at offering more kid and adult CPR classes in the future. Stay tuned!

🏈 Is your child playing school sports this year? A sports physical is likely required — and we’re here to help!

🏥 Stop by our Walk-In Clinic to get it done before the season kicks off. No appointment needed! Be sure to:

- Check your school’s specific requirements
- Complete any necessary paperwork before you arrive
- Accompany your child to the clinic

TIP: Did your child get a sports physical last year? Double-check last year's date - you have to wait a full 12 months between them. Insurance typically won’t cover a second one before that year is up.

📞 Questions? Call us at 618-282-7373.

🕒 Our Walk-In Clinic Hours:
Mon–Fri: 8am–7pm & Sat: 8am–4pm

Let’s get your athlete game-ready! 💪
