SundayJun 23 2024Super Campers Always : Sickle Cell Anemiathrough (EDT)
Camp AccomplishA fun, supportive, and empowering environment for children and teens with Sickle Cell Anemia
Medical Leader: Children’s National Hospital Sickle Cell ProgramIn addition to fun, the goal of Super Campers Always is to reduce the social isolation that is often associated with this condition and increase every camper’s knowledge and understanding of sickle cell anemia. The camp provides opportunities for the children and teens to work with professional staff and become better self-advocates and self-managers of their condition. Parents can feel comfortable that their children are under the care of trained and experienced doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals who are experts in the field.
Medical staff, including doctors, nurses, social workers, physical therapists, and psychologists, are on-site 24 hours a day and counselors are trained to deal with issues related to sickle cell disease.
