DETAILS ON WINTER MEDICAL ATTENTION & EMERGENCY SERVICES

MEDICAL ATTENTION
logo_skipatrol.gifIn the event that a group member is injured while at Stowe, first notification should be made to the Stowe Ski Patrol. All patrol members are qualified professionals who are trained to handle any on-mountain emergencies and other situations. An initial analysis can be made by patrol members as well as identification of appropriate next steps. In the event of an emergency, the Stowe Mountain Resort or the Stowe Rescue Service will provide transportation to any medical clinic, hospital, or other facility deemed necessary.
If an injury is not deemed an emergency, on-mountain transportation may not be provided. In such an instance, please call the Round Hearth (253.7223) for assistance with and organization of transportation.


NOTIFICATION OF A GROUP MEMBER'S INJURY WHILE AT THE STOWE SKI RESORT
Chaperones should regularly check the "chalk" message boards located at the base of each chair lift for information affecting their group (i.e.: injury notice, phone calls, etc.). The base lodge P.A. systems will also broadcast chaperone names, if needed.
In the event that a group member is injured or becomes ill or otherwise incapacitated while at the Round Hearth itself, immediate notification should be made to our lodge management. We can coordinate any steps or actions deemed necessary by you and/or ourselves. We will also contact emergency personnel or provide transportation ourselves as deemed appropriate for groups lodging with us at the Round Hearth.
In all cases of injury or illness, please remember that we are always available for advice, assistance, and to help with transportation arrangements, if needed. Few situations are as frustrating as being far from home when injury, illness, or other problems occur. We recognize our responsibility in such cases and are always at the ready for you and your group members.
