• All medications must be reported and turned in at Quail check-in on departure morning. Emergency-use medications, such as Epi-Pens, inhalers, and diabetic supplies, are to stay with the camper, but they must still be reported at check-in.
• Please make sure your camper's Hume profile has been updated to reflect their current medications and dosage instructions.
• If a medication has been reported to Hume on the camper's Hume profile, you will need to bring it to check-in. If it is no longer needed, you will need to update the Hume profile to reflect that.
• All medications MUST be in their original packaging.
• Please do not bring large-sized medication bottles, if at all possible.
• AFTER CAMP, make sure to collect your camper's medications before leaving the Quail campus!!!

From Hume Regarding Prescribed Medications, Vitamins & Supplements:

These will be collected and dispensed by the camp health center. We consider any vitamin, supplement, or over-the-counter therapy that is taken to treat a condition or maintain health to be a “medication.” We are not able to give a medication that we cannot identify and dose from the original container. Sending medication in anything other than the original container may result in the camper not receiving it.
