Take Care Health Systems, a wholly owned subsidiary of Walgreens, is now offering back-to-school physicals at Take Care Clinics nationwide, through Sept. 30.
The physicals are administered by board certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants and are available for $35. Families or groups with two or more children, who arrive at the Take Care Clinic together, can receive back-to-school physicals for $30 each.
During the physical, a Take Care Health provider will assess a student’s height, weight, body mass index, vision and other information while also discussing and providing counseling on immunizations and high-risk behaviors. State requirements for back-to-school and sports physicals vary. Parents and guardians can talk to a school official or a Take Care Health professional to learn what’s appropriate for their child.
Local Take Care Clinics are located in the Walgreens at the northwest corner of Central Avenue and Osborn Road, and at the northeast corner of 35th and Dunlap avenues. No appointment is necessary.
