Camp Physicals in Denville, NJ | AFC Urgent Care Denville

For generations, children have enjoyed carefree summers at camp, making new friends and engaging in activities like swimming, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding, archery, and various sports. Camp offers a unique environment where kids can immerse themselves in nature and develop essential life skills such as tolerance, accountability, and assertiveness.

If you plan to send your child to summer camp, remember that they may need medical clearance from a provider. A camp physical is a specialized exam that screens for health conditions that could pose risks during camp activities. Even if not required, a camp physical is an excellent way to assess your child’s overall health and address any potential issues early.

At AFC Denville, we offer camp physicals on a walk-in basis at our urgent care clinic in Denville, New Jersey. Trust our outstanding medical team to provide thorough health assessments and valuable advice, similar to what you would receive from your pediatrician or primary care physician—but without the long wait for an appointment.

Camp physicals at AFC Denville are affordably priced at $50 per child.

WHAT DOES A CAMP PHYSICAL INVOLVE?

When you visit AFC Denville for your child’s camp physical, be sure to bring any camp-required forms along with your child’s current medication list, vaccination record, and eyeglasses or contact lenses. One of our experienced and kid-friendly providers can help make sure that your child is “camp ready” by performing:

• A medical history, medication, and immunization review
• Basic hearing and vision screenings
• A vital-sign check, including blood pressure, pulse, and body temperature

When finalizing the necessary paperwork, your provider will note any issues that could affect your child’s safety or health while at camp. For example, if your child recently sustained a sprain, strain, or fracture, he or she may need to sit out certain camp activities to minimize the risk of re-injury. Or, if your child has a known allergy or asthma, he or she may need to carry an epinephrine auto-injector or inhaler at all times.
