All medications are kept under lock by the healthcare manager. You must turn in all medications for your child at Check-In. These will be recorded along with specific dosing instructions, and stored under lock for the duration of your child’s stay with us. Medications must be kept in their pharmacy bottles with your camper’s name and instructions for administration.
Prescription medications are dispensed to campers according to the dosing instructions provided. A record of disbursement is kept for each medication (date and time dispensed, etc.). Over-the-counter medications are distributed to campers as needed and diagnosed by the healthcare manager (these disbursal histories are also recorded).
Cedarkirk has a health care center stocked with many over-the-counter medicines: you do not need to bring your own.
