Dear students and parents,
Welcome to Hui Xin kindergarten, I am the campus nurse and my name is Anna. All newly registered students at Hui Xin campus is required to obtain a health check from Kowloon hospital.
Why get a health check? It is a requirement by the health/quarantine bureau, that all students attending kindergarten/elementary programs within Suzhou, must acquire a recognized health check in order to prevent transferable diseases and as an effort to implement both provincial and country wide standards for monitoring children's health and wellbeing.
Why Kowloon hospital? Because it is approved by the health and quarantine bureau to issue health checks to all kindergarten/elementary school students and it is conveniently close to Hui Xin campus. I fully understand that many of our families and children have already passed initial health-checks to obtain visa's or residence permits to stay in China and might be hesitant towards further health checks. However, it is a requirement for all newly registered kindergarten students, commencing from August, 2015 that we as a Suzhou registered kindergarten must enforce the health check procedures of enrolment. I ask for your understanding and trust.
Finally, I wish to prepare you. Even though Kowloon is a famous hospital in Suzhou, hospitals in China will be different than what you might experience at home and physicians lack the "personal time" that many expect from a family's health care provider. At a Chinese health check, you will receive the "health check form" which you have to bring to the stations that check for height/weight, vision/hearing, liver/heart/lungs, blood and basic dental check-up. After each station is completed the physician will give a remark or stamp on the form.
