CCD Camper Health & Wellness 3

Question 1

A camper is found unresponsive in their bunk in the morning. Staff cannot wake them. What is the correct sequence of initial response?

Accepted Answer

Call 911 first, then check for breathing and begin CPR if needed

Answer

For an unresponsive person, activating EMS (calling 911) simultaneously with beginning assessment and CPR maximizes survival outcomes.

Question 2

Which of the following is an example of a universal precaution that camp health staff should routinely follow?

Accepted Answer

Treating all blood and body fluids as potentially infectious regardless of the camper's known health status

Answer

Universal precautions require treating all blood and body fluids as potentially infectious to protect staff and campers from bloodborne pathogens.

Question 3

A camper with Type 1 diabetes presents with shakiness, sweating, and confusion. Their blood glucose reading is 52 mg/dL. What is the appropriate immediate intervention?

Accepted Answer

Give a fast-acting carbohydrate such as juice or glucose tablets

Answer

A blood glucose of 52 mg/dL indicates hypoglycemia, which is treated with fast-acting carbohydrates — not insulin, which would worsen the condition.

Question 4

What is the most important factor in preventing the spread of norovirus during a camp outbreak?

Accepted Answer

Rigorous hand washing with soap and water and thorough environmental disinfection

Answer

Norovirus is resistant to alcohol-based sanitizers; soap and water handwashing combined with bleach-based disinfection of surfaces is the most effective control measure.

Question 5

A camper discloses to their counselor that they have been cutting themselves. The counselor should FIRST:

Accepted Answer

Report the disclosure to the camp director and health staff immediately

Answer

Self-harm disclosures must be immediately escalated to supervisory and health care staff — confidentiality cannot be maintained when a camper's safety is at risk.
