WHAT TO DO FOR THE EXAM APPOINTMENT:

On the day of the exam, your child should follow these instructions:

• Since your child is under 12 years of age, no fasting is required for the exam. Your child may eat as he or she normally would.

• Your child should take prescriptions, vitamins, supplements, and non-prescription medicines as he or she normally would.

• Please leave any jewelry at home and do bring a sweater if your child gets cold easily.

Special note for parents of children 3 to 5 years old:

• When your child comes for their exam, we hope to obtain a urine specimen in the exam center to test for environmental chemicals which can be found in urine.

• DO NOT BRING A URINE SPECIMEN WITH YOU. It needs to be collected in the mobile examination center.

• We will ask that you assist your child obtain this specimen while in the bathroom at the mobile examination center. If you could give your child something to drink before coming to the exam, then it might be easier to obtain a specimen during the examination. Any drink you would like to give to your child is fine, and they can eat their regular meals before coming to the exam. Food or drinks will not interfere with the laboratory tests.
