Checkup time!

As parents, you want your child’s life to be filled with healthy habits. Showing them that regular medical, dental and vision checkups are responsible life choices is important. Through Crow Wing County’s Child and Teen Checkups program, these appointments are FREE to anyone on Medical Assistance. Your 12-year old’s checkups will include:

• A chance to ask your questions
• Reliable information about healthy food, sleep, behavior and safety
• Check on growth and heart health
• Time for your child to talk on their own with the doctor or nurse, to learn how to start taking charge of their own health!
• Head-to-toe exam
• Immunizations and blood tests, if needed
• Help finding regular dental care
• Hearing and vision checks
• Support with family needs:
  • Food, housing, utilities
  • Money or job resources
  • Child care
  • Transportation
  • Help with safe relationships, mental health or substance use
