Attention Parents/guardians of Grant County student-athletes: By Oregon state law, every student-athlete who wishes to participate in school-sponsored sports must have a pre-participation sports physical every two years. The Strawberry Wilderness Community Clinic and the Grant County Health Department have always tried to support our local high school and junior high athletes by providing sports physicals at a nominal fee. However, due to changes in requirements by health insurance providers and our efforts to provide the best possible care to Grant County youth, we will now be doing a full adolescent well-child exam at the time of the sports physical. These are fully covered yearly by all insurance plans. At adolescent well-child exams, we measure your adolescent’s growth, screen for depression and other concerning conditions, perform a physical examination, make sure immunizations are up to date, and counsel him/ her regarding health topics that are important for adolescents. 05649 05945
