Examen físico escolar

At Tu Clínica Hispana, our approach to school physical exams goes beyond the basic requirements. We provide a holistic assessment that includes a review of the child’s medical history, a thorough physical examination, necessary immunizations, and health education tailored to the age and development of each child.

Medical History Review

The school physical begins with a comprehensive review of the child’s medical history, including previous illnesses, surgeries, hospitalizations, allergies, and family health history. This information helps us identify any underlying conditions that may require further attention or accommodation in the school setting.

Thorough Physical Examination

Our healthcare professionals conduct a detailed physical examination that includes an assessment of the child’s height, weight, blood pressure, heart rate, vision, and hearing. We also evaluate the musculoskeletal system, especially for students participating in sports, to ensure they are physically ready to engage in athletic activities.

Immunization Updates

Immunizations are a critical component of preventive healthcare. We review each child’s immunization records to ensure they are up to date according to school and public health guidelines. If necessary, we can administer any missing vaccinations during the visit.

Health Education and Counseling

An integral part of our school physical exams is health education and counseling. We provide age-appropriate guidance on nutrition, physical activity, sleep hygiene, and injury prevention. For adolescents, we also address topics such as mental health, substance abuse, and sexual health, fostering an environment where they feel comfortable asking questions and seeking advice.

Expertise in Pediatric and Adolescent Health

Our team specializes in pediatric and adolescent healthcare, bringing a depth of knowledge and experience to every exam. We understand the unique health needs of children and adolescents and are equipped to address a wide range of medical concerns.

Culturally Sensitive Care

We take pride in offering culturally sensitive care that respects the traditions and values of the Hispanic community. Our bilingual staff ensures clear communication with both parents and children, making the healthcare experience comfortable and inclusive.
Convenient and Accessible Services

We understand the busy schedules of families and strive to make our services as convenient and accessible as possible. We offer flexible appointment scheduling, including after-school hours, to accommodate the needs of our patients and their families.

A Supportive and Welcoming Environment

Our clinics are designed to be welcoming spaces that put children and adolescents at ease. From the waiting room to the examination room, we create a friendly and supportive environment that helps reduce anxiety and makes healthcare visits a positive experience.
