If you work with families with school-aged children, it’s a great time to remind them to schedule checkups and vaccines before the busy back-to-school season. As families prepare for a new school year, schedules can fill up quickly. Waiting until the last minute to schedule appointments may make it harder to get a convenient appointment before school starts.
Почему это важно
Regular checkups help children stay healthy and get the preventive care they need. These visits also give parents and caregivers an opportunity to ask questions about their child’s health, development and well-being.
Staying up to date on recommended vaccines helps protect children from serious illnesses and supports healthier schools and communities.
