Below is a simple form we used on our Trek and I have used for other Trips
as well. Not reviewed by a lawyer. I just wanted something that documented
an understanding we had with parents.
Permission for Non-Prescription Medication
In consideration of the communication difficulties and the possibility of
minor illness or injury inherent in the activity of backpacking,
I, _______________________________, authorize the administration of
(Print Name of Parent or Guardian)
non-prescription medications for the treatment of minor illnesses or injury
to my son, ________________________________ while backpacking.
(Print Name of Scout)
Such administration shall be at the discretion of the adult Scout Leaders
for the trip scheduled ________________________________________.
(indicate Dates of the Trip/ duration of the permission)
I have indicated any exceptions below.
Exceptions; Do not administer the following (if no exceptions write “NONE”):
Date:________________ _______________________________________
(Parent or Guardian)
