Healthy Kid Programs

Why are children's health check-ups essential?

Children undergo highly specific changes at each stage of their development, so their health must be monitored and assessed much more than in adults. Monitoring and preventing illness,  recommending age-appropriate nutrition, and undergoing additional screenings such as eyesight exams, hearing assessments and blood screening, are all things that parents should prioritize. 

Which specific assessments should be carried out at each stage?

• Cranium measurements for children under 2 years of age
• At least one hearing assessment using specialized equipment during the first 6 months
• Hearing assessments by a pediatrician, from 4 months to 6 years of age
• Developmental screening at 9 months, 18 months and 3 years of age
• Blood pressure screening and eyesight examinations for children aged 3 and above
• First visit to the dentist between 1-2 years of age
• Hematocrit screening at 6-12 months, at 3-6 years, and in adolescent females

Preparation for Check-up Program:

1. Your child should be completely healthy, as Illness may influence the results
2. Dress your child in comfortable clothing that is convenient to change out of
3. Do not consume any food or drink for 8 hours before the check-up (only for Healthy Kid Advanced Package).
4. Ensure that your child has sufficient rest the night prior to the check-up
5. Avoid heavy meals the day before the check-up as they may affect blood glucose and blood fat levels
6. Bring your child's vaccination diary
