Free sports physicals July 31 |
July 10, 2012 |
Physicals are required before the first practice
starts for students participating in any sports,
including cheerleading, who are entering grades
7, 9, 11, or new to the sports programs, or part
of the flag football team. Boundary Community Hospital’s Medical Staff and hospital employees are volunteering their time so all students can participate in sports. This is a one-night only event and students are encouraged to attend. The Sports Clinic is between the hours of 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesday, July 31. Last year over 100 students received a free physical traveling through six testing stations and finishing with a quick visit with the doctor. The exam team provides privacy, even with the steady stream of students. The visit with the doctor is behind closed doors and the weight scales are in a secluded place. The sports physical clinic is in the Outpatient Clinic area of the Boundary Community Hospital. Come in “the back way” to the hospital and enter through the double doors. A consent form is necessary with a parent, or guardian signature, as well as the student’s signature for approval and permission. Coaches have the form. Parents, and or guardians, must be present with the student for registration at the Sports Clinic. If you have a question, please call Bonners Ferry High School, (208)267-3149. |
