Health & Medications

It is required that our Health and Consent form be filled out by the client’s PCP and that the Doctor signs the consent form stating that to his or her knowledge the client is healthy enough to participate in programs with HILLS. We will need full disclosure of all health information, including an up-to-date medication list, in order to safely work with each client.

If clients are on medication or daily supplements we have staff that are certified through the state of Colorado’s Medication Administration Program (MAP) and we can safely administer medications to our clients.  Clients are always fully supervised when taking their medications, and each client’s medical consumption will be documented by our staff on the forms that you give to us. We will at no time administer insulin shots or any other medical injections unless you have notified us that a CNA or RNA is needed for the trip.  If clients are self-medicated we will still need a list of their medications, doses and times.

It is important that you send the original pill bottles with sufficient pills for the entire trip plus 2 extra days of medication in case of an emergency.  We also need the medication sheets that show the medication, dosage and times of each administration of medicine.  If you need copies of our MAP certification, it is your responsibility to ask for them and we will readily provide them to you.
