INTEGRIS Health, in conjunction with Oklahoma City Community College and Moore-Norman Technology Center, has teamed together to assist Oklahoma City Public Schools in providing free wellness screenings for hundreds of elementary students.

The screenings record the student’s height and weight and the results of vision, hearing, blood pressure, teeth and throat exams. Results are sent to parents for their review. Each school nurse has a list of resources available for parents if their children need follow-up care from a medical professional.

Annual screenings can be an important tool to insure a student’s success in school.
