Saturday, March 3, 2008
Two Neighborhood Child Health Clinics are planned for this spring. The free clinics for Dane County children and adolescents, regardless of insurance status, will be open for registration from 4:00 to 6 p.m. on the following days and locations:
| Monday, March 31st | Orchard Ridge School | 5602 Russett Road |
| Monday, April 28th | Allis School | 4201 Buckeye Road |
The clinics will provide physical exams, dental and other screenings and immunizations. Kindergarten, school and sports check-ups can also be completed.
If families are receiving BadgerCare Plus, they are asked to bring each family member’s BadgerCare Plus or ForwardHealth card. If families have insurance that pays for preventive health services, it is best to follow-up with their provider.
No appointments are necessary, but a parent or guardian must accompany the child. Interpreter services are available at the clinics, which are sponsored by the Dane County Coalition for Neighborhood Child Health.
Questions about the clinic should be directed to Sally Zirbel-Donisch, the clinic coordinator, at 663-8424 or Kathy Price at 663-4941.
