Bill > S06230

This bill allows employees of children's overnight, summer day, or traveling summer day camps to administer medications and treatments to children, provided they have specific authorization and consent from a parent or guardian. This administration must be based on a patient-specific order from the camp's health director or a contracted healthcare professional, or the child's own healthcare provider, and can include over-the-counter medications for common issues like pain, anaphylaxis, or motion sickness, as well as prescription medications for emergencies such as asthma, anaphylaxis, or seizure medications. The medications must be approved by the commissioner of health and administered according to regulations outlined in the education law and by the department of health.
