New Horizons Solutions, Inc. (NHS) will be at your child’s Community Center to perform health screenings that will include medical, vision, hearing, developmental/behavioral, and dental. If the examination results indicate your child is in need of closer attention in any of these areas, a referral will be made to appropriate medical personnel based on findings. NHS will NOT be treating your child. If you do not have a provider, one will be chosen for you by your Managed Care Organization.
These health screenings are being provided at the school and are done during school hours. If you are interested in your child having a health screening, please complete the following forms (including signing the consent) and return to the school as soon as possible. These services are also provided by your Primary Care Provider. If you are seeing your PCP, please continue to do so.
The screenings include the following:
- A comprehensive history including developmental/behavioral screenings.
- Vision and hearing screenings.
- A complete head-to-toe physical exam (your child will be partially unclothed, but suitably draped during this exam – a staff member will be present).

An UNCLOTHED EXAM is the same as in your doctor’s office and includes the following procedures:
1. Listening to the heart and lungs; 2. Feeling and listening to the stomach; 3. Checking the back for scoliosis (curve of the spine); 4.Checking the femoral pulse (a heart beat located on the lower stomach and upper leg); 5. Examining the skin for problems such as rashes or infections; 6. Assessing stages of development through observation.
A Pediatric or Family Practice Nurse will conduct the unclothed exam behind a privacy screen. During the unclothed exam, clothes will be lifted. The Provider will ask your child for their permission to complete each part of the exam. You are encouraged to be present during the entire exam.
