On Saturday, August 11th from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m., Florida Blue locations around the State of Florida will be holding Back to School Health Fairs.  Help prepare your kids for the upcoming school year and have fun, too!  No appointments are necessary.

Take advantage of FREE:

• Sports physicals
• Hearing screenings
• Kid-friendly refreshments
• Giveaways

As a reminder to parents, your child’s school year checklist should include the following:

• Make sure your child is up to date on all shots.
• Make sure your child understands the importance of proper hand washing.
• Encourage your child not to use other people’s combs/brushes which can cause the spread of head lice.
• Ensure your child maintains a well balanced diet.
• See that your child gets plenty of sleep: With school starting, it’s more important than ever that your child can learn at their peak capacity.
