Hello,
The nurses are trying to schedule an event with SIHF healthcare for students to get physicals/sports physicals and immunizations completed for next year. We are hoping to coordinate this event with the residential checks taking place on July 23rd at CM. SIHF healthcare is requiring us to have 18 people committed to come to this event before it can officially be scheduled. We wanted to put this out to see if we can get the 18 appointments they are requiring. We have attached the link to the form that needs
to be completed to attend the event.
https://sihfforms.org/school-consent-form/
If anyone has a student or knows of someone who needs an updated physical and/or immunizations please complete this form and submit it. As far as cost is concerned, SIHF will bill insurance first and if you do not have insurance the self-pay cost is $25. If the student is homeless or their family is really struggling at the moment and cannot afford the $25 fee, then they have a sliding fee scale that can go all the way down to $0 in some cases. We know it is difficult to commit to an event that does not have an official date yet, but if you sign up and the date does not work for you there is no additional fee for not attending. Thank you for your assistance in helping us get this scheduled for the district.
