Children who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing

Due to the high volume of medications we see at Camp, we must follow the following steps to ensure your safety in the Health Lodge. Please contact our Healthcare Supervisor with any questions. • The following forms must be at Camp by the deadline date listed below for all Camps except our Adult Deaf or Hard of Hearing Camp. Please see the chart for the deadline for each camp session. • We will cancel any camper who does not have their forms in by the deadline. o A health history form, to be filled out by the legal guardian annually for upto-date health information. o A physical examination form, based on an exam dated after August 3, 2021 filled out by a licensed MD, PA or NP must be on file. This is only due if it is sent to you – exams are good for 24 months. o All follow-up forms such as diabetes, seizure, mental health concerns, anaphylaxis allergy or asthma questionnaires need to be filled out to give us detailed information about the condition. o A waiver form, to grant permission for medical treatment and care. • Turn in all medications, including over-the-counter medications, vitamins and homeopathic remedies. All medications must be in the original container with your camper’s name, dosage and times clearly stated. If any information is missing, we cannot administer that medication. Please consider which medications are necessary for the week they are at Camp and plan accordingly by only bringing what is needed plus one or two extra. • During the camps for children with diabetes, diabetes specific medication and supplies will be given to the healthcare staff in the cabin; not the Health Lodge. • Our Deaf or Hard of Hearing Adult program only requires the health history and waiver filled out annually. We will not collect any medications either, as the program requires you handle those medications independently.

This program is intended for ages 5-18.
