Women’s and Children’s Health Network, through Child and Family Health Service offers free child health checks at key ages between birth and 5 years.
As part of this service, Child and Family Health Nurses visit pre-schools throughout South Australia to offer health checks to all children between 4 and 5 years of age.
The health check includes a discussion with you about your child’s growth and development, immunisation status and will also assess your child’s:
· distance vision
· hearing
· height and weight
· oral health
Carol Foster, Child and Family Health Nurse will visit the Early Learning Centre on Tuesday 14 February, 2017 from 9.15am and you are encouraged to attend. If you are unable to attend but nominate another adult, you are required to complete a written consent which is on the back of the letter you receive when you make an appointment.
Please note; it is essential that an adult of your choice is present with your child at the ELC. If this is not possible, you may have the health check completed by your GP or at your local Child and Family Health Service clinic.
Please also note; the minimum age for Health Check is 4 years and 3 months
Just a reminder to book early as all places were fully booked last term. Please make your booking with Mrs Mandy at the Front Desk.
