Keep current records of who is with each child across care, lodging and activities. Assign emergency roles and test communication between those areas. Plan how the camp accounts for people and reunites households during a disruption.
Assign emergency roles and test communication across lodging, childcare, activity areas, and off-site trips. The team needs to know who is with each child at that moment.
For an emergency involving a caregiver, plan who safely supports the children and who contacts authorized help. Do not assume another guest can take over without an appropriate arrangement.
For an emergency involving a child, act through the trained plan and get urgent help. Do not delay necessary action while searching for a parent who is in an adult workshop.
Keep current household and childcare rosters. During evacuation, account for people by name, not only by cabin or family count. Some household members may be in different groups.
Plan illness-related room arrangements, meals, cleaning, departure, and public-health contact. A family sharing a room may need a different response from individual campers in dormitories.
Define reunification points and authorized handovers. A chaotic evacuation is not the time to decide which adult may collect a child.
Your task: Rehearse a caregiver taken to hospital while two children are in different camp-led sessions.
