Concussion-Return to Play

Hi all - I was just wondering if anyone has developed a return-to play type of communication slip specific to camp activities? Most of the ones I can find are team-sports types and don't fit the camp environment.

I'm looking to create something like this but thought I'd ask first if anyone has one they are willing to share.

Maybe return-to-play isn't the right word (as that is a specific kind of release) but I'm looking for something that a kid who is not having to stay with the nurses for close observation, but still can't do horseback riding or water skiing - how to best communicate that with those specific counselors - if there was a slip that said - activity period 1: painting - OK, activity period 2: climbing - no/observe only... etc... for those kids that are walking around camp, being a part of things, but not released yet for full on contact. Thoughts?

    I prefer to have a conversation directly with the cabin counselor or staff leading the activity, otherwise they may never get the note...

    Oh yes - I do that as well, the note would be handy though even for the counselor - I'm just thinking that camps are so different than usual return to play forms - of course football/contact sports are a given -

    Maybe the bigger question is - what does return to play mean for camp activities - how can we tailor something to fit the variety of things kids do in camp that is clear for all. Conversations are great, and needed, but there are so many people involved with the camper, not just the one counselor. I'm just looking for a way to make it clear to all involved, the camper, nurses, and counseling staff.

    My camp uses a little half sheet that has all the camp activities listed and check boxes beside them. The top says something to the effect of BLANK camper cannot participate in the following activities. Below that it says something like "Until __/__" below that is a line "must return to health center ___/___" We don't have a digital copy of it. We just found a large box of them in the back of the health center on season.

    we don't use a ton of them. Usually only for kids who have history of malingering to either confirm or deny the injury to the campers actual counselor.

    Our clinic is a little different in that the staff that brings the camper to see us often isn't the staff that is directly responsible for that camper, so whe use the notes when instructions need relayed and we don't want to play telephone with everyone.
