Option for On Call Nurse/Doctor

The medical procedures for onsite staff with only First Aid or EMT level training provide for two program circumstances: one with an on call nurse or doctor and one without.

Where a program has an on call nurse or doctor that person is responsible for supporting any on-site first aid responders and will be notified in case of medical emergency. They are responsible for implementing communication procedures between them and onsite adults following these policies, state law, scope of practice of on-site leaders with medical certifications, and medical best practices.
