Depends on the damage; not all bird strikes result in serious damage. However, in the case you describe, it is highly likely "broken blades" and broken bird require a shop visit for the engine. Some damage may be fixed on wing; again, depends on type of damage. Other checks have to be done to other parts of the aircraft. I'll try to find excerpts of a maintenance manual for you.
