Health Services

A qualified individual is on duty at our Health Lodge twenty-four hours a day. In the unlikely event of serious illness or injury to a Scout, he will be taken to Heartland Hospital East or a St. Joseph  clinic less than ten minutes away.

All prescription medicine for Scouts and Leaders must be given to the Health Lodge personnel and kept under supervision or kept in a locked container under the responsibility of one of the unit leaders. The leader responsible for keeping medications in the campsite is required to sign a waiver accepting responsibility. Refrigeration is available for those medications that require it. The Health Lodge Director is to be instructed as to medication schedules.
