Camp Nurse

A camp nurse is a healthcare professional, often a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse, who provides medical care and first aid to campers and staff at a camp. They handle minor injuries, illnesses, and health concerns, ensuring a safe and healthy environment. Camp nurses also manage medications, monitor chronic conditions, and coordinate emergency care if needed. They work on-site, collaborating with camp staff to promote health education and prevent health issues, ultimately supporting the well-being of everyone at the camp.
