Safety is paramount during counselor & staff training. We have a 24 hour nurse on staff, with a doctor on call, and emergency medical care only minutes away. In the event of illness or injury parents will be notified by phone immediately. Campers must be active, so its important everyone is in good health. Anyone with a communicable disease, fever, or injury under a physician care, will be sent home. All medications must be presented, in their original container, to the nurse at check in, with no parental modifications. If a child takes medications for ADD or ADHD, the American Camping Assoc., and Camp Del Oro, strongly recommends continuing to take the medication, as campers are required to concentrate and demonstrate impulse control. If your camper must leave early we will only release them to the parent/guardian who signed the application. Identification and signed release will be required. If a child is sent home due to illness or behavioral issue, the parent/guardian is responsible to pick them up, and the child will wait comfortably in the nurse's office until they arrive.
