Rockbridge Area Health Center, in collaboration with city and county schools, will offer several school and sports physical and required immunization clinics for students of all ages.
Understanding the challenges faced by busy families, RAHC is committed to offering convenient and accessible clinics in Lexington and Buena Vista.
“We are making it easier for families on the go to get their children’s physicals and immunizations with minimal disruption to their busy end-of-summer plans,” said RAHC’s medical director, Dr. Michael Henry.
The clinics will take place over three days at alternating times at both Rockbridge County High School and Parry McCluer High School as follows: RCHS
• July 23: 7 to 11 a.m.
• July 25: 2:30 to 6:30 p.m.
• July 30: 7 to 11 a.m.
PMHS
• July 23: 2:30 to 6:30 p.m.
• July 25: 7 to 11 a.m.
• July 30: 2:30 to 6:30 p.m. All school-aged children are welcome. They do not need to be RAHC patients, and insurance is not required. Parents or guardians must accompany students.
Services provided will meet the commonwealth of Virginia’s requirements and include height and weight measurement, blood pressure and pulse readings, full physical examinations (heart, lungs, abdomen, ears, nose, throat), vision and hearing tests, and required immunizations.
Appointments are strongly suggested. Walk-ins are welcome but cannot be guaranteed due to availability. To schedule an appointment or for more information, call or text (540) 464-8700.
“We encourage parents and guardians to take advantage of this opportunity to ensure their children are healthy and ready for a successful school year,” emphasized Henry.
