MEDICATION & FIRST AID [MEDICAL INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR 2015]:
A Health History form (included with Registration Form) will require a doctor’s signature in order for your child to
receive any over-the-counter medications as needed per stock while at camp from the first aid. All medications
(prescription and/or over-the-counter), vitamins, herbs, and enzymes MUST have a doctor’s order and be brought
in the original pharmacy labeled container or the original manufacturer’s container to the first aid station at checkin. Prescription medications MUST have the camper’s name on the bottle. Please make note on the medical form
and alert medical personnel at the first aid station during check-in of all allergies or medical conditions.
In order to provide coverage for our licensed medical professionals that volunteer at the James River Campground,
it was determined and verified by the American Camp Association, the Association of Camp Nurses and the
Missouri Scope of Practice of RN’s that our healthcare professionals need to have a doctor’s signature in order to
provide any over the counter medications including but not limited to: Ibuprofen, Tylenol or Zyrtec, Benadryl, and
that any prescription medication must be in the original container with prescription and dosage from the pharmacy which dispensed it.
