We are excited to share a new service that Community Health Center, Inc. will be piloting at Momauguin School through the School-Based Health Care (SBHC) program.
Beginning on the first day of school, families will have access to Virtual Sick Visits for students enrolled in SBHC.
The goal of this pilot is to provide families with another convenient option when their child is experiencing a minor illness or symptom and they need timely guidance on whether their child can return to school, needs additional care, or can be safely managed at home.
Parents will be able to self-schedule a virtual appointment using the QR code or scheduling information included on the above flyer. Virtual visits can support concerns such as:
- Fever or sore throat
- Cough or cold symptoms
- Pink eye
- Vomiting or diarrhea
- Rash
- Headache
During the virtual visit, the medical team can provide home-care guidance, return-to-school recommendations, prescriptions when clinically appropriate, and school excuse documentation.
Please consider enrolling your child in School Based Health Care.
