Somerset "Other" Medical Information

'OTHER' MEDICAL CONDITIONS AT SOMERSET 
Introduction

We endeavour to make arrangements so that your child can participate as much as possible in the Program.

Our Group Leaders and key Program Staff have current training in Remote Area First Aid.

The Camp and Program environment may exacerbate conditions and injuries; please consider your child's condition / injury in context with the general Program Information and activity schedule.

If deemed an injury, illness or condition of concern, Somerset will require a Doctor's clearance for attendance and participation in activities.

You may also like to consult with your doctor/specialist prior to your child attending the Program.
