It is the time of year when we need to start the medical screening process for ALL students. We have modified the screening process so there is a basic medical screen for most students with a more extensive screen for students entering Grades 3, 6, 9 and 11 which includes a tuberculosis screen. Any student who has had a new student medical examination after January 2016 will not need a repeat examination. All students must fill in the Nurse Medication Consent form.
Forms are available for download from the ISB website. ISB Health Services Forms and Resources
Any student with Diabetes, Asthma or Anaphylaxis will also need an action plan filled out by the doctor. Forms are available for download from the ISB website. ISB Health Services Forms and Resources
ALL FORMS MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THE HEALTH CLINIC BY JUNE 30 2016 either in person or via email nurse@isb.ac.th
The medicals can be done by any registered medical practitioner either in Thailand or your home country. Many health insurance companies will cover annual medical screening for children. The medicals examinations for students entering K and grades 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10 and 12 can now be done at the Bumrungrad Nichada Clinic (with referral to the hospital is any issues). They can also be done at World Medical Center or Samitivej Hospital. All other students will need to attend Bumrungrad Hospital, World Medical Center or Samitivej Hospital.
Packages have been negotiated for Bumrungrad and World Medical Center as outlined below. Please make your child’s booking for the “ISB Student Physical Examination” and take all the forms for the doctor to fill out (as required). Please note there may be an additional 100 THB for equipment and additional fees if there are additional reviews or tests are required due to abnormalities.
Tuberculosis (TB) Screen additional costs (discuss with your doctor the appropriate screening test)
