The programs at CSH are designed to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for children with diabetes. All activities are led by trained personnel.
Campers meet other children who share the same problems and learn from each other.
Understanding Counselors serve as positive role models since most have diabetes and can relate to the children and offer encouragement. Campers meet adults with diabetes who lead happy and successful lives as parents, businessmen, teachers, doctors, nurses and college students. The importance of self-discipline and responsibility are stressed. Blood sugar is monitored at least four times daily. All campers are checked by the medical staff during the night to detect any blood sugar problems and make necessary corrections.
