Each participant (including leaders) completes this form separately for each event or activity involving an overnight stay, travel outside the local area, or higher than ordinary risks (see General Handbook: Serving in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 20.5.5, 20.7.4, 20.7.7). The event or activity leader should have access to all participants’ forms during the activity.
Permission
I give permission for my child or youth to participate in the event and activities listed above (unless noted) and authorize the adult leaders supervising this event to administer emergency treatment to the above-named participant for any accident or illness and to act in my stead in approving necessary medical care. This authorization shall cover this event and travel to and from this event.
Please note: Units may not have the ability to meet all medical, physical, and other accommodations and are asked to counsel with parents or guardians on what is possible.
The participant is responsible for his or her own conduct and is aware of and agrees to abide by Church standards, camp or event safety rules, and other pertinent instructions. The participant’s conduct and interactions should abide by Church standards and exemplify Christlike behavior.
Parents and participants should understand that participation in an activity is not a right but a privilege that can be revoked if participants behave inappropriately or if they pose a risk to themselves or others.
This information is collected to help event and activity leaders or medical personnel so they can be prepared and appropriately respond to health concerns or an emergency. It will be kept confidential and shared only as needed.
