Important information from the ISB Health Clinic

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 2018 will not need a repeat examination. All students must fill in the Nurse Medication Consent form and Tuberculosis Symptom Screening form.

Forms are available for download from the ISB website here

Any student with Diabetes, Asthma or Anaphylaxis will also need an action plan filled out by the doctor. Theses action plans are available for download from the ISB website: ISB Health Services Forms and Resources.

If your child has regular medications that the nurse administers throughout the school day, please also get the Prescription Medication Consent form filled out.

ALL FORMS MUST BE SUBMITTED TO THE HEALTH CLINIC BY JUNE 30 2018 either in person or via email nurse@isb.ac.th. Incomplete forms will not be accepted.

The medicals can be done by any registered medical practitioner either in Thailand or your home country. Please make sure you take your child’s vaccination record to the appointment for the medical. If you are attending a clinic you have not been to in the past you will also need your passport or Thai ID card. 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 Aetna Family Clinic Nichada (with referral to the hospital if there are any issues). They can also be done at World Medical Center or Samitivej Hospital. All students entering grades 3, 6, 9 and 11 will need to attend Bumrungrad Hospital, World Medical Center, Samitivej Hospital or any other hospital/doctors surgery with appropriate facilities. Please note that World Medical Center only have audiology services Tuesday 9am-5pm, Wednesday 5pm-8pm and Saturday 9am-5pm.

Packages have been negotiated with Aetna Family Clinic, Bumrungrad Hospital and World Medical Center as outlined below. Please make your child’s booking for the “ISB Student Physical Examination” and take the forms for the doctor to fill out (as required). Please note there may be additional fees required for equipment and if there are additional medical reviews or tests required due to abnormalities found during the examination. If the doctor is consulted about any other medical concerns, additional medical certificates are required (that are not the ISB Physical Examination Report) or vaccinations are recommended and given, there will be additional fees.
