Orland Township Asks Parents To Complete Child Health Survey
Orland Township is seeking help from parents who would like to have their children screened for asthma and allergies, the township said.
ORLAND PARK, IL — The Orland Park Township is seeking help from parents in the area that would like to have their children screened for asthma and allergies, according to the office of Orland Township supervisor Paul O’Grady.
The township would like to bring Mobile Care Chicago, a non-profit organization that brings child medical services to the community with their mobile medical clinics. With this, children can be screened for allergies and asthma by a specialist, and then have a treatment plan set up for the child if needed, according to the township.
The township stated in a news release that to have these screenings, the village must first show community interest and need for the service. The township is asking the village to fill out a survey regarding their child’s respiratory health. If many fill out the survey, Mobile Care Chicago will set up a date to visit Orland Township and residents will be notified, according to the release.
