Help Recovery of Local Student Athlete By Receiving Your Physical With Us! Receive Your Sports Physical Now & Help Donate $10 to Recovery of Local Student Athlete Immediate Care Medical Walk-In will be donating $10 for every physical performed at any of their nine urgent care locations to the Darrell Rogers Jr fundraiser now through August. Proceeds from this fundraiser will assist the Rogers’ family in the medical costs for Darrell, a high school sophomore varsity athlete who has recently experienced a tragic medical emergency. With the fall sport season about to begin, an up-to-date sports physical is required for every athlete before they can participate. A physical will ensure that each athlete meets the health guidelines mandated by the state of New Jersey and the school. During the exam, the patient’s past medical records will be reviewed as well as any current conditions, medications and supplements. Immediate Care providers will also administer a full fitness exam that includes an assessment of vitals, reflexes and flexibility as well as a vision and hearing test. Be sure to bring a list of all medications, medical records including past vaccinations and any paperwork for Immediate Care providers to complete. • Assess Your Health: A physical will evaluate current and future risks of health conditions and build a treatment plan, if necessary. It will also give the provider an opportunity to look over any recently healed injuries and evaluate your strength in that area to ensure you are ready to play again. • Beat the Rush: Avoid the stress of making a last minute appointment or waiting until the few days before the first day of school. Complete your sports and back to school physical requirements this month, which will be accepted for up to one year by most schools and organizations. • Stay in the Know: Physical exams address any pre-existing health conditions and discuss ways to prevent future medical concerns. Learning about your current health creates an opportunity to put any necessary treatment plans in place.
