I, the undersigned, state that I am seeking to participate in the above referenced Stetson University, Inc. (hereafter “Stetson”) Program (hereafter “Program”). I wish to participate in the above referenced Program on the date(s) indicated above and, in consideration for my participation, I hereby agree as follows:

I acknowledge that I must be able to self-administer all prescription and non-prescription medications if they are needed during the Program. The Program does not assist participants in taking their prescription or non-prescription medications unless it is necessary for emergency treatment, nor does the Program remind participants to do so.

I acknowledge that all prescription medications, including medications for conditions such as food, drug, or insect allergies; diabetes; asthma; or epilepsy may be brought to the Program under the condition that I can self-manage care and delivery of medication. All medications (prescription and over-the-counter) must be stored in the original product packaging and clearly labeled with my name. Prescription medication(s) must also include a label with the medication’s name and dosage instructions, as well as the prescribing physician’s name and telephone number.

I acknowledge that I am required to disclose my intention to bring medications to the Program, especially to treat potentially life-threatening conditions (i.e. inhalers, EPI-pens, insulin injections). Upon arrival to the Program, I must meet with a member of the Program staff at registration to review my medication issues. I understand that it is NOT permissible for me to share any medications with any other participants.

I acknowledge the need for emergency medication may require that a Program participant carry the medication on their person or that it be easily accessed (i.e. inhalers, EPI-pens, insulin injections). Program staff will NOT purchase medications of any type (prescription or over-the-counter) for Program participants of any age.

I hereby authorize the Program Staff or other licensed health care practitioners, acting within the scope of his or her practice under State law, to provide medical care that includes routine diagnostic procedures (e.g., x-rays, blood and urine tests) and medical treatment as necessary. I understand that the consent and authorization herein granted does not include major surgical procedures and is valid only during the Program. In the event that an illness or injury would require more extensive evaluation, I understand that every reasonable attempt will be made to contact my emergency contacts. However, in the event of an emergency and if they cannot be reached, I give my consent for Stetson Program staff or other licensed health care practitioners to perform any necessary emergency treatment.

I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to provide medical coverage, and/or provide any payments for medical costs that may arise as a result of injuries related to Program activities, including those costs that may exceed or be excluded from a Stetson accident insurance policy if applicable. I hereby consent and give my permission to be treated for emergency medical care and first aid by a medical facility and/or clinic personnel at their discretion, and release them from liability for such decisions. I certify that I have completed the medical information on Page 1 of this form as well.

I furthermore release, indemnify and hold harmless Stetson from and against any and all liability, actions, debts, claims and demands of every kind whatsoever, specifically including, but not limited to, any claim for negligence or negligent acts or omissions and any present or future claim, loss or liability for injury to person or property that I may suffer, for which I may be liable to any other person, that may or does arise out of my participation in the Program.

This consent shall be governed by and construed under the laws of Florida. I agree that any legal action or proceeding relating to this RELEASE, or arising out of any injury, death, damage or loss as a result of my participation in any part of the Program, shall be brought only in Volusia County, Florida.
