1 - 18 Medications In order to comply with New York State Health Department Regulations, all troop medications must be stored in a locked box under control of the Health Director, his/her staff or designated person such as a responsible troop leader. All medications must be labeled. A troop medication list, Form C-4 (in the appendix) is used listing one Scout and one medication per line. The list will be kept in the locked boxes with the medications. Lock boxes will be issued to the troop leader when they come to camp. They will include a lock, key and seven medication lists. These lists should be filled out with the Scout’s name, medication and time of administration. If this is done when you receive the forms, you just have to verity the medication with the sheet when giving it. At the end of each week, the locked medication box, lock and key will be signed back into the camp office before departure from camp. Only those medications brought to camp by the Scout may be given. No Tylenol or other nonprescription medication will be given without contacting the Health Lodge first. New York State Health Department requires that a doctor authorize any medication given to a Scout. Use form H-1 for this approval. Camp Site Fire Protection Use 2 quart milk cartons, juice cans or #10 cans for fire buckets. Put 2 at each tent and fire site. Two full fire buckets are required by state law at each tent and we require two at each lean-‐to. It is up to the leaders to see that they are not used for other than the intended purposes. The buckets should be filled with clean water daily as part of the troop campsite cleanup procedures. 1) Fire Control – It is recognized that fire buckets have no value for a large fire. However, they are of great value in stopping a small fire from becoming a large fire, or for putting out minor fires. 2) First Aid – First aid for first and second degree burns is to apply cold water. When you have fire buckets, you have cold water there for prompt first aid. Note that in case of burns, time counts. The longer between burning and the application of cold water, the more possibility there is of damage or the greater the possibility of a more severe burn. 3) Cooking – Handfuls of water may be thrown on a fire that is too hot. 4) All fires are to be tended at all times. No fire is to be left burning in a campsite when there are no campers or leaders attending. 5) Never build a fire directly on the ground at camp. The pine duff on the ground will catch and may burn hundreds of acres of land.
