As parents and students get their back-to-school lists ready, Emplify Health by Bellin is reminding everyone to make sure their health is on the list.
Sending students to school with the right vaccinations, updated medical records, and prepared for in-school medical needs can ensure a healthy and successful school year.
Dr. Melissa Hidde, Emplify Health by Bellin Ashwaubenon Family Medicine Physician, notes that parents should “ensure your child has all the right documentation, medication, and medical requirements fulfilled,” and to connect with your student’s teacher or school’s nurse early.
A primary care provider can help you identify needed vaccinations and help coordinate any medication or medical assistance your child may need at school.
Scheduling those visits now can help avoid the back-to-school rush.
