Essentia Health encourages parents to schedule well-child/teen visits during slow summer months

As families settle into summer routines, Essentia Health is encouraging parents to take advantage of the season’s added flexibility by scheduling well-child/teen visits before school, sports and activities pick back up. Annual well-child checks are an important opportunity to assess every aspect of a child’s health—from growth, cognitive and social development to mental well-being, nutrition, immunizations and injury/illness prevention. For students planning to participate in athletics, these appointments can also include a required sports physical, also known as preparticipation physical evaluations. Well-child/teen visits are recommended every year from birth through age 21. During these appointments, a pediatrician or primary care provider may: · Conduct a comprehensive physical exam. · Measure height, weight and other growth indicators. · Discuss development, behavior and school or social concerns. · Screen for mental health concerns, including anxiety and depression. · Update immunizations, including HPV, meningitis and other recommended vaccines. · Talk about nutrition, physical activity, sleep and illness prevention. · Discuss how to respond to emergencies or sudden illness. As children get older, providers may also discuss age-appropriate topics such as substance use, sexual health, peer relationships and healthy decision-making. Appointments can be scheduled directly through your child’s pediatrician or family medicine provider. You
