Alpengirl Camp

Medical and Emergency Support On-Site First Aid Kits: Each group is equipped with fully stocked first aid kits, including supplies for basic medical needs, wound care, splinting, and emergency medication. Kits are regularly checked and replenished. Emergency Communication: In remote areas, Alpengirl Camp uses satellite communication devices to stay in contact with camp leadership, ensuring quick alerts to emergency services if needed. Health Screenings and Pre-Camp Health Forms Medical Forms: Parents or guardians must complete comprehensive health forms before camp arrival, detailing pre-existing medical conditions, allergies, medications, physical limitations, and vaccination history. This ensures the camp staff can accommodate each camper’s unique health needs. Pre-Camp Communication: The camp works closely with families to ensure all medical information is up-to-date. Chronic conditions such as asthma or diabetes are carefully managed with input from families and healthcare providers. Medication Management: Prescription medications are securely stored and dispensed by trained guides according to the prescribed schedule. Campers may only keep medications with them if directed by camp medical personnel. Safety in Outdoor Activities Safety Briefings: Each activity—such as rock climbing, whitewater rafting, horseback riding, or backpacking—begins with a detailed safety briefing. Campers are taught proper equipment use, safety procedures, and emergency protocols. Activity-Specific Risk Management: High-quality safety gear, such as life jackets and helmets, is provided for all activities. Risk Assessments and Safety Protocols Cornerstone Safety Group: Alpengirl Camp collaborates with Cornerstone Safety Group to develop comprehensive risk and safety protocols across all programming and operations. Weather Monitoring: Weather changes are closely monitored. In cases of extreme weather (e.g., thunderstorms, high winds, extreme heat), activities are adapted or canceled to ensure camper safety. Alpengirl Camp’s commitment to safety and preparedness ensures that campers can enjoy their adventures with confidence and care.
