WALK-IN CAMP PHYSICALS IN PARSIPPANY, NJ

Countless children have cherished their summer camp experiences, filled with fun, friendship, and adventure. Camp allows kids to connect with nature and participate in activities such as swimming, kayaking, hiking, horseback riding, archery, and various sports. Beyond enjoyment, camp fosters essential life skills like tolerance, accountability, and assertiveness.

Before sending your child to camp, it’s crucial to ensure they receive medical clearance. A camp physical is a specialized exam designed to identify any health issues that might pose a risk during camp activities. Even if not required, a camp physical provides an excellent opportunity to evaluate your child’s overall health and address any potential concerns early on.

At AFC Parsippany, we offer camp physicals on a walk-in basis at our convenient urgent care center in Parsippany, New Jersey. Trust our experienced medical team to provide thorough health assessments and valuable health tips, similar to what you would expect from your pediatrician or primary care physician—without the long wait times for an appointment.

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

WHAT DOES A CAMP PHYSICAL INVOLVE?

When you visit AFC Parsippany 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

As we complete the necessary paperwork, our provider will identify any issues that could impact your child’s safety or health during camp. For instance, if your child has recently experienced a sprain, strain, or fracture, they may need to avoid certain activities to prevent re-injury. Additionally, if your child has known allergies or asthma, they may need to have an epinephrine auto-injector or inhaler readily available.
