The health and safety of all our guests is of upmost importance. On-site health care staff includes at least one 24-hour on-call qualified medical staff, who serves from a well-stocked on-site health cabin. In addition, all summer staff are trained in Standard First Aid by St. John Ambulance.

Forms: Please fill out the Medical Information section part of the Registration Form. Please complete this carefully – be sure to include the Medicare # and Expiration Date. Need more space? Please attach a separate piece of paper with additional information for the care of your child while at camp. If there are any changes in the camper’s medical condition after you complete this form, you are responsible to inform the office, in writing, of these changes. Medications: All medications must be handed in on arrival day. Campers may not keep any medications in the cabin. Some allowances are made for puffers and epipens.

Insurance: Parents are to provide medical insurance if their child is not covered by a provincial medical plan. Parents are responsible for any cost incurred not covered by insurance, or their provincial health plan, e.g. medications etc. The regional hospital (in Fredericton) is located within 45 minutes of Greenhill Lake. Staff are chosen after a rigorous application and screening process (including a Criminal Record Check), and pre-summer staff training is provided.

National Lifeguard Service (N.L.S.) certified lifeguards provide a safe environment for all GHLC waterfront and pool activities. Green Hill Lake Camp is accredited by the NB Camping Association. If you are planning to be away from home during your child’s stay at the Lake, please make sure our office has clear information about how to reach you in case of an emergency.

Important Health Notes

Medication: To ensure the best possible experience for all concerned, children must maintain their normal medication patterns while at camp or, if changing, must have any medication affecting behaviour adjusted by their physician and in effect at least 4 weeks prior to coming to camp.

Please remember, when bringing any prescription medications to camp they MUST be in their original labeled container. OR you may wish to go to your local pharmacy and have your camper’s medications placed in an appropriate blister-pak.
