Youth Information Form

Youth Information Form
  = Required

Dear Families,

Thank you for taking the time to complete the Youth Information Form. Colorado Mountain Club strives to be a welcoming and inclusive organization.  We believe that our program participants benefit from sharing meaningful experiences in a positive outdoor environment with others who bring a diversity of skills, life experiences, personalities, perspectives and beliefs to the program. Many youth have life situations that may influence their experience in Colorado Mountain Club programming.  These situations may be medical, physical, dietary, religious, emotional, family-related, school-related or trauma-related.  In order to best serve each youth, we request that parents/guardians share this information with us on this form.

Colorado Mountain Club is an Outdoor Education organization, and we strive to provide the best possible learning environment so that participants have the best chance of success in skill– and community-building.  This includes maintaining physical and emotional comfort and safety for participants.  Colorado Mountain Club will make every effort to accommodate any special requests associated with the circumstances listed on this form.  In the event that we cannot make accommodations, we will communicate that in advance with the family, and the youth will have the option to participate without accommodation or to forego participation.

Colorado Mountain Club takes privacy and confidentiality seriously.  Information on this form will be shared ONLY with Colorado Mountain Club Youth Program Staff and Instructors for the activity or activities in which the youth is participating.  Information will not be disclosed to any other individuals except as necessary for the safety of the youth and as communicated with the youth and family in advance of disclosure.  Youth may have the option to forego participation in lieu of disclosure.

insurance information

It is the responsibility of every parent or legal guardian to provide the participant's accident and health coverage while participating in Colorado Mountain Club activities. Colorado Mountain Club does not provide any accident or health coverage for its participants.

Is the participant covered by medical/hospital insurance?     

 

 

      

      

     

      


authorization for treatment

This health history is correct to the extent of my knowledge, and my child has permission to engage in all prescribed activities.  I hereby give permission to the First Aid or medical personnel selected by Colorado Mountain Club to provide treatment according to their assessment of my child’s needs.  In the event that I cannot be reached in an emergency, I hereby give permission to the physician selected by a Colorado Mountain Club Leader to hospitalize, secure proper treatment for, and to order injection and/or anesthesia and/or surgery for my child as named above.  I understand that Colorado Mountain Club does not provide emergency transportation and I authorize transportation by ambulance according to the judgment of the staff.  I understand the program fees do not include health and accident insurance and I will be responsible for any and all charges incurred in obtaining prompt medical attention.  This completed form may be printed for trips off of Colorado Mountain Club's property.

Parent/Guardian Initials       Date     

In the event of injury or illness, Colorado Mountain Club leaders will provide basic first aid in the field according to their training and certification level, and if needed will transport the youth by ambulance to the nearest definitive care facility.  Do you have any specific instructions regarding medical care for the youth participant?

  

 


over-the-counter (otc) medication authorization

As part of Colorado Mountain Club's programs, youth may spend 1-10 days in the care of Colorado Mountain Club's Staff and Volunteers, away from parents and guardians.  While we promote a healthy environment by ensuring youth are fed and hydrated, and by avoiding extreme conditions when possible, there are times when a youth’s comfort and ability to fully participate can be significantly improved with over-the-counter (OTC) medication.  Examples include headaches, nausea, allergies, minor injuries and menstrual cramps.

I give permission for Colorado Mountain Club staff and volunteers to administer sunscreen, hand sanitizer and/or over-the-counter medications to my child as needed at their discretion.  Colorado Mountain Club staff and volunteers will never administer a dosage that is greater than the dosage recommended on the medication directions for use.  I assert that my child has no known allergies to any brands of these products, and acknowledge that allergies can develop at any time. 

I hereby give representatives of Colorado Mountain Club permission to administer to my child any brand of any of the following non-prescription over-the-counter medications:

    Sunscreen
    Hand Sanitizer
    Ibuprofen
    Acetaminophen
    Diphenhydramine HCl (antihistamine found in brands like Benadryl)
    Antacid or Anti-diarrheal (like Tums or Pepto Bismol)
    Topical Antihistamine
    Topical Antibiotic
    Cold or Allergy Medication

Notes
