Yearly Physicals:
Yearly physicals (i.e. annual check-ups) are integral to proactive healthcare. At Diverse Care, our routine appointments provide individuals with an opportunity to assess their overall well-being and detect potential health issues early on. Our healthcare professionals conduct thorough examinations which include checking vital signs, reviewing medical history, and performing various screenings and tests. This proactive approach helps individuals stay informed about their health status, identify risk factors, and receive guidance on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Yearly physicals not only promote early intervention but also encourage a strong doctor-patient relationship, fostering open communication and informed decision-making for better long-term health outcomes.
School Physicals:
Before the commencement of every academic year, Diverse Care conducts physical assessment tests for school goers. These examinations which ensure that students are in good health and physically fit to participate in school activities are essential to complete the enrollment process for schools. School physicals at Diverse Care involve a review of a student's medical history, measurement of vital signs, vision and hearing checks, and a physical examination.
