Florida Hospital Flagler gives kids free sports physicals

Florida Hospital Flagler gave more than 400 Flagler Palm Coast High School and Matanzas High School students free sports physicals April 29.

"This is a great opportunity given to our kids by a great organization,” Matanzas High School Assistant Principal and Athletic Director Robert Nocella said in a Florida Hospital Flagler press release. “The staff of

Florida Hospital Flagler and their volunteers did such a great job."

A team of 12 physicians, 12 Daytona State College nursing students and 40 other hospital employees worked together to provide the physicals.

The average cost of a student physical at a walk-in clinic is $30, so Florida Hospital Flagler provided about $12,000 worth of free services in one evening, according to the release.
