Well Child Physicals

Provides basic physical for children

Children’s health is important. Many child care organizations and schools require that children receive a physical before they can enroll. The Harvey County Health Department can assist with completing physicals for these reasons and others.

  • Check-ups for children: Kan-Be-Healthy, Head Start, day care, pre-school and kindergarten
  • Physical includes lab tests, hearing, vision, speech, lead, and developmental screening
  • Call 316-283-1637 for an appointment
