District 41 and District 89 students: the Illinois school exam
Glen Ellyn, IL families in Districts 41 and 89 use the state's Certificate of Child Health Examination. The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) requires an exam within one year before kindergarten or first grade, on entering sixth and ninth grade, before preschool, and when a child enrolls in a new school. Proof is due before October 15.
Since 2024, the form has a box showing whether a social-emotional and developmental screening was done. IDPH says a child is not excluded from school if that part is left blank. IDPH also requires one dose of Tdap for students entering sixth grade in 2026 to 2027, and a meningococcal dose on or after age 11. Our school physicals page explains the visit.

Job physicals and what an exam costs
Read moreClose
Campus jobs and new employers often send a health form too. All of our employment physicals are non-DOT, and we do not do commercial driver (CDL) exams. If an employer wants a non-DOT drug screen, it can be collected at either clinic.
Coverage for physicals varies by plan, and many plans treat a form exam differently from a yearly checkup. See cost and insurance and call to confirm. Self-pay visits at Urgent Care Center of Westmont, also known as Immediate Care Center of Westmont, start at $125. Our team is led by board-certified physicians. Our physical exams page lists every type we complete.
How many visits does a TB skin test take for a college program?
Two. The test is placed at the first visit, and the result is read two to three days later at a second visit. If your program deadline is close, start early, and ask the program whether another type of TB screening is accepted. Bring the program's instructions to your first visit.
Can a Glen Ellyn, IL student bring a program form we have never seen?
Yes. Bring every page, with your part filled in. The clinician completes the exam sections at the visit. Items that need records, lab work or a TB result may take a little longer, so ask at check-in what can be done that day.
Do Glen Ellyn, IL sixth graders need a Tdap shot for school?
Yes. IDPH's 2026 to 2027 rules require one dose of Tdap for students entering sixth grade, and one meningococcal dose given on or after age 11. Bring your child's vaccine record to the school physical, and call ahead if you want the shot at the same visit.
Is it worth the drive from Glen Ellyn, IL for a physical?
There may be closer clinics. Families choose us because both clinics are open seven days a week, the Cass Ave clinic can be booked online, and the exam, TB test and vaccine review can often be started in one place. Call (630) 324-6825 with questions first.
What should we bring for a Glen Ellyn, IL day camp health form?
Bring the camp's form with the parent section signed, your child's vaccine record, and a list of medicines and allergies.
