Medication Information

Preparing for Camp

• All prescription medication must remain in its original container, labeled with the camper's name, name of medication, current dosage, times taken per day, physician's name, and pharmacy name.
• All over-the-counter medication must remain in its original container, labeled with the camper's name, current dosage, time and purpose for which it is to be administered.
• DO NOT SEND MEDICATIONS IN DAILY DOSE CONTAINERS! According to state law, we cannot dispense medications to minor campers if said medications are not in the original containers.
• Feel free to send along instructions or more detailed information that would help our staff further assist your camper(s).
• Remember to pack your camper's inhaler or Epi-Pen!

During Camp

• At check-in, our medical personnel will make a health assessment by asking some general health questions.
• All medications will be collected by the medical personnel upon arrival at camp. Please remind your camper to have their medications with them when they come to check-in.
• NO medication, prescription or over-the-counter, are allowed in cabins with minors. They will be kept in a locked area by our staff.
• Asthma inhalers may be kept with the camper. Epi-pens will be kept with either the camper or the camper's family/cabin leaders for quick access.
• Our medical personnel will make arrangements to dispense medication(s) at the appropriate time(s) with each camper. Please remind your camper to see the medical personnel for their medications each day.

After Camp

• On the last morning of camp, the medical personnel will be available for the camper(s) to retrieve their medications.
• Please let us know of any early departure so we can be sure to get your camper their medication(s) before leaving.
