Medical Volunteers

Medical Safety at Camp

At Camp Quality, the well-being of our campers is our number one priority. In order to ensure the highest level of care, each camp has a designated Health Care Team to meet the individualized needs of each of our campers. This team also works in contact with the local hospital, which is never more than one hour away from the camp. Our Health Care Teams are devoted to the physical, emotional, and mental health of our campers – they are committed to ensuring a safe and fun-filled camp experience. We maintain a 15:1 ratio of campers to medical professionals.
