Re: Medications at Camp
We do ours in the Health Center, and I wouldn't switch to the dining hall--mostly for privacy, but also 'cause it's harder (I think) to make sure they're actually taken. In the health center only the girls who take meds have any chance of observing what someone else is taking, and they sort of "understand" each other--it'd be different at a table with girls who don't take them. When I overhear one girl asking another what she takes, I issue a gentle "that's private" reminder--but if the girls want to share, I've got no problem with that. I've had many girls who were shy about taking meds, but actually, meeting other girls who did, too, seemed to help them a lot. It was neat.
