Health and Safety Forms

& E-Docs

It is a fundamental Scouting belief that Scouting must be fun and safe. Camping and high adventure activities within the Boy Scouts are done with the concept of managed risk within the guidelines set forth by BSA and local council policy. The Council Executive Board sets local policy. The Scout Executive will interpret BSA policy when guidance is not clear.

The following information is intended to be used as an aid to Scouters in all BSA programs: Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Venturers, and Learning For Life.

High Adventure Treks

Philmont Scout Ranch and Florida Sea Base require the use of their special medical form by all youth and adults because of the strenuous nature of the activities taking place there.

It is recommended that unit leaders have a complete medical history and permission slip for every participant attending each Scouting activity. The medical history form and permission slip, in most cases, will allow emergency medical treatment to a youth member in case of injury or illness when a parent or guardian cannot be contacted.

Philmont Medical Form: To obtain the proper medical forms, call Philmont at 505-376-2281 and ask for Camping or PTC Headquaters.
