📚 It’s Back-to-School season! As students head back, we’re committed to supporting families with essential medical imaging services and guidance. Here are a few health tips to consider: ✅ Schedule Routine Check-ups: If your child participates in school sports or other activities, they may be required to complete a physical exam with your primary care provider. This is a great opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns you may have about your child’s health and wellness. ✅ Partner with Coaches: Set an example for your kids by asking questions and seeking feedback from their teachers and coaches. Keeping an open line of communication will help increase your awareness of any sports-related injuries, so you can make sure your child follows recommended training and rehabilitation plans. ✅ Consider Medical Imaging if Needed: In the event of an injury or other medical concerns, imaging procedures like X-rays or MRIs can provide valuable insights. Ask your healthcare provider for a referral to a trusted partner like Professional Imaging, with locations in St. Louis and Kansas City: https://pi-imaging.com/. #BackToSchool #MedicalImaging #Healthcare #FamilyHealth
