From: kbrody@PROTECTED Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2019 10:10 PM Subject: Health form and physical information for April 23

To all parents and scouts of troop 363:

Patrick Brody and Dr. Steve McCloy will be available on April 23, 2019, a Tuesday, before the usual meeting to conduct troop physicals for the scouts and any crossovers needing one. A new physical is required each year for each scout.

We are not wanting to discourage anyone from your routine and usual visits with your son's doctor or usual provider, but often these physicals need to be done before they expire or just before a campout, and it becomes harder.

Dr. McCloy is an internal medicine physician and does not usually take care of scout age boys , but is qualified for exams and has done this for several years as a volunteer for SAISD athletic physicals. Mr. Brody is a paramedic/EMT and is qualified to help, as well.

If any other medical personnel want to help, we could use the help.

There will be no charge.

Several ground rules:

1.Health forms part A and B must be completed beforehand and we will fill out the last page (part C). The forms have been attached for your convenience.

1. We will start at 5:45 pm and do a scout every 10-15 minutes until completed.

The scout's parent MUST be present and in the room. Two adults will be in each of two rooms, one room for vital signs and another room for the rest of the exam.

The physician will not be doing groin checks, (i.e., checking for inguinal hernias), but the exam would qualify and be complete.

Appointments will be set up via Sign Up Genius for each 15 minute set of time slots.

Loose clothing will help and very little disrobing will be required.

1. Scouts will need to clear out when finished and plan on coming back to attend the troop meeting at 7:00 p.m. since we will not be able to supervise any other scouts while doing the physicals.

We plan on using the "patrol" rooms off the usual scout meeting room.

1. Kristy Brody and Christina Chavez are helping to collect and organize medical forms this year and are planning to be present to take completed forms.

2. This kind of physical is required for longer camp outs ( such as Friday to Sunday trips) and summer camp. Adult leaders are also required to have the same physical done, but we are not providing adult physicals.

Yours in Scouting,

Dr. McCloy Patrick & Kristy Brody
