________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

current seizure related Medication:

1. Seizure Type (please check):

* Generalized tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal seizures) are the most common and best known type of generalized seizure. They begin with stiffening of the limbs (the tonic phase), followed by jerking of the limbs and face (the clonic phase).

* Myoclonic seizures are rapid, brief contractions of bodily muscles, which usually occur at the same time on both sides of the body. Occasionally, they involve one arm or a foot. People usually think of them as sudden jerks or clumsiness.

* Atonic seizures produce an abrupt loss of muscle tone. They produce head drops, loss of posture, or sudden collapse. Because they are so abrupt, without any warning, and because the people who experience them fall with force, atonic seizures can result in injuries to the head and face. Protective headgear is sometimes used by children and adults.

* Absence seizures (petit mal seizures) are lapses of awareness, sometimes with staring, that begin and end abruptly, lasting only a few seconds. There is no warning and no after-effect.

* Simple partial show no loss of consciousness. Sudden jerking, sensory phenomena. Lasts about 90 seconds.

* Complex partial last about 1-2 minutes in which consciousness is impaired or lost. May have an aura. Symptoms include: Automatisms such as lip smacking, picking at clothes, fumbling. They may be unaware of the environment and may wander. Following the seizure they are often unaware of the seizure event and can be confused and sleepy.* Status epilepticus If seizures are prolonged, or occur in a series, there is an increased risk of status epilepticus. The term literally means a continuous state of seizure.

2. When was your/the participant’s last seizure? _____ /_____ /______ How long does the seizure last?

How long was the longest seizure? _________________________________________________________________________________________

3. Describe what a typical seizure looks like (be specific) : _________________________________________________________________________

Staff and volunteers have been provided in-service training concerning proper hygienic procedures.

CAR SEATSDue to state legislation, car seats or boosters must be provided for all children ages seven and under. For more information contact the superintendent of safety & operations.

MEDICATIONIt is the parent/guardian and participant’s responsibility to inform WSSRA of any medication a participant is taking. This information is important in case of an emergency. Medication information should be noted ion the registration forms, as well as the annual information form. Any changes in medication should be communication to WSSRA.

SEIZURESParticipants who have had a seizure must complete a seizure information form prior to beginning programs. Please see page 47 for this form. Forms can be found on the WSSRA website, scanned & emailed, or mailed to you. Forms need to be updated as changes with the seizures or medication occurs.

INSURANCEThe association takes every reasonable precaution to prevent injuries and accidents from occurring. However, if an accident does occur or if you or your participant is injured, you are solely responsible for any costs incurred or caused by an injury that happens in an association program.

WAIVER OF LIABILITYWSSRA is insured through a self-insurance pool with other special recreation associations and park districts. Our pool is known as the park district risk management agency (pdrma). As a loss prevention measure, pdrma is requiring participants to execute a release of liability for programs. The reverse side of the registration forms contains the WSSRA waiver release form. This must be signed and returned to the WSSRA office before a participant can be in programs each season.Since we do not carry medical or accident insurance for program participants, the release of liability is necessary. The cost of such coverage would make our program fees to high for most to afford. Please review your personal health plan to be certain that you and your family have coverage in instances like these.Our objective is to offer a high-quality program at a reasonable cost. The use of a release of liability, when appropriate, is but one way we are trying to meet that objective. If you have questions, call the WSSRA executive director. We appreciate your continued involvement and support.

NON-RESIDENT POLICYWSSRA programs are limited to people who live in the WSSRA partner districts and villages. If you live outside of the WSSRA communities and are interested in participating in a special recreation program, call your park district or village recreation department. Call the WSSRA executive director for more information.
