Middle and high school students who need sports physicals for the upcoming school year are encouraged to register for free sports physicals, a news release from Providence Medical Group — Chehalis Family Medicine stated.
Sign up with Sign Up Genius at https://tinyurl.com/mtzfmwtn. Physicals will take place Wednesday, Aug. 6, from 4:30 to 7 p.m., or until all students have been processed, at Providence Medical Group-Chehalis Family Medicine, 931 S. Market Blvd., Chehalis.
Walk-ins may be available but will only be seen during openings in the scheduled times.
All students must have completed sports physicals forms (which can be filled out at the start of the event, or contact Chehalis Family Medicine to obtain copies to fill out prior to the event) and parental signatures, according to the release.
Students under 16 years of age must have parents at the property during physicals. Those over 16 can attend without parents but must have parental signatures on forms.
The physical examinations do not replace recommended “well-child” checks conducted by family health care providers. For patients who do not have primary care providers, Providence Medical Group-Chehalis Family Medicine is accepting new patients and will be able to schedule visits that evening.
This is the second year Providence Medical Group–Chehalis Family Medicine has offered this free service to the community. In 2018, nearly 100 students from Lewis and Thurston counties took advantage of this opportunity, the release stated.
