Medication Policy


Swanzey Lake Summer Camp does not administer any prescription or over-the-counter
medication. If a camper does need a prescription or over-the-counter medication,
parents/guardians are welcome to stop by the camp and administer the medication to their child during a break.

The exception to this policy is for fast-acting, life-saving medication (epi-pen, inhaler, etc.). An
Authorization to Administer form must be filled out completely and signed by a Licensed Health Practitioner. The form and medication will be handed off to camper’s Camp Counselor upon arrival each day and sent home with the camper each evening. If a medical emergency does arise our staff will support the camper in administering medication themselves and contact the appropriate emergency personnel and parents/guardians.
