Health Center
Our health center accommodates 8 campers - one small dorm for boys and another for girls, and an isolation room for people who need it. Two nurses live full time in the Health Center, and are available 24 hours a day, and are experienced in the management of a wide range of allergies and illnesses, along with the sprains, bug bites, rashes, and other minor health issues that arise at camp. They are also experienced in management of medications for specific needs such as asthma and attention deficit and other issues.
Kinderland has partnered with Macony Pediatrics in Great Barrington, Mass., for more than 20 years; we retain a special driver so that children can get to medical appointments without delay. We also are connected to local pediatric dentists, orthopedists, and the Emergency Room at Fairview Hospital. EMT services are available at all times, and have responded within minutes on the very few occasions they have been called to camp. Whenever possible, treatment decisions are made in ongoing consultation with parents or guardians.
