It’s a tradition in many families to send their kids off to summer camp. Many of these camps require physicals before you can send your kid to the camp. These physicals are usually done just to make sure that your kid is healthy enough to attend the camp. There are many places you can go to get your kid’s required camp physicals done. Here are some things to look out for when you decide on a place to go get these important physicals completed.
Are The Hours Convenient?
Your kids may be on summer break, but you aren’t. You still have to go to work. You still have to run your business. You need to make sure that the clinic you pick has hours that fit with your schedule. It does you no good if the clinic is only open during the times you are at work. You need a clinic that is open on the weekends and during the evening hours.
Does The Clinic Take Your Insurance?
If you have insurance, make sure that the clinic you plan to use takes your insurance before you use your gas money getting to the clinic. You could also call the clinic before you go. Time is too precious to waste driving somewhere that doesn’t take your insurance.
Are The Prices In Your Budget?
You are already going to have to pay the camp’s fees for your kid to attend. You will probably have a list of stuff to buy for the camp as well. You need to make sure that the prices are reasonable. You don’t want to spend all of your money on the physical and not have enough money left to buy the stuff your child will need to be comfortable at the camp.
Summer camp is a time honored tradition. It should be a fun experience for your kid. Making sure that your child is well enough to go to camp is an important thing for you to do. Don’t be careless when you pick where you want your child’s physical done.
