How to Get Ready for Your Child’s School or Sports Physical—Without the Stress

Back-to-school season or sports tryouts coming up? One thing always on the checklist: the required physical exam. Whether it’s for a new school year, a sports team, or summer camp, a physical ensures your child is healthy and ready to go.

At Airline Care Clinic, we make walk-in physicals fast, easy, and convenient for busy families. Here’s how to prepare so your visit goes smoothly—and you’re not scrambling at the last minute.


1. Bring the Right Forms

Most schools or teams have specific forms that need to be filled out by a licensed provider. Print and bring these forms with you. If you’re unsure which ones, check your school or league’s website—or call ahead.


2. Know Your Child’s Medical History

Be ready to share details about:

  • Any current medications

  • Allergies (including food or medication)

  • Past surgeries or hospital visits

  • Chronic conditions like asthma, ADHD, or diabetes

  • Immunization records (bring the latest copy if available)


3. Dress Comfortably

Your child should wear loose-fitting clothes and shoes that are easy to remove. This makes it easier for the provider to check height, weight, vision, reflexes, and range of motion—especially for sports physicals.


4. Eat and Drink Normally

Unless you’re told otherwise, your child can eat and drink as usual before the exam. Being well-hydrated helps if a urine sample is required.


5. Be Ready for a Quick, Friendly Visit

The visit usually takes less than 30 minutes. Our providers will ask a few questions, do a physical exam, and fill out your paperwork. If anything needs follow-up, we’ll explain the next steps clearly.
