SayPro Support Staff: Health and Safety for the 5 Days Religious Studies Camp

The SayPro Support Staff plays a critical role in ensuring the health and safety of all participants during the 5 Days Religious Studies Camp. With both in-person and virtual attendees, the staff must be vigilant about following appropriate safety protocols, providing necessary health support, and fostering a secure environment for learning. Their responsibilities include managing health guidelines, monitoring physical safety, and addressing any concerns related to both the mental and physical well-being of participants.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of their responsibilities concerning health and safety during the camp:

---

1. Health Protocols and Guidelines (for In-Person Participants)

• Health & Safety Orientation:
  • At the beginning of the camp, the support staff will conduct a health and safety orientation for all in-person participants. This will include clear guidelines on how to stay safe during the event, such as hygiene practices, emergency procedures, and how to get assistance in case of health issues.
• Sanitization and Hygiene:
  • Regular Cleaning: The support staff will ensure that high-touch surfaces (e.g., door handles, light switches, restrooms) are cleaned and sanitized regularly throughout the camp.
  • Sanitizing Stations: They will set up hand sanitizing stations in strategic locations throughout the camp venue to encourage participants to regularly clean their hands.
  • Restroom Sanitation: They will ensure that restrooms are adequately stocked with soap, hand sanitizer, and paper towels and are cleaned and disinfected multiple times per day.
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
  • Face Masks and Face Shields: Depending on the guidelines or regulations in place at the time, the support staff will ensure that face masks, shields, or other PPE are available for all in-person participants and facilitators. Masks may be required in communal spaces.
  • Providing PPE: If participants do not bring their own PPE, support staff will have a supply on hand and ensure that everyone adheres to the required standards.
• Physical Distancing:
  • The support staff will help ensure that participants maintain physical distancing protocols, such as spacing chairs appropriately in lecture halls and discussion areas, particularly during meal breaks and group activities.
• Monitoring Participant Health:
  • Temperature Checks: If required, the support staff will conduct temperature checks at the entrance to the venue to screen participants for signs of illness.
  • Symptom Monitoring: They will actively monitor any signs of illness or discomfort among participants, ensuring that individuals who feel unwell are immediately directed to appropriate support and separated from the group if necessary.
• Emergency Medical Support:
  • First Aid and Medical Kits: The support staff will ensure that fully stocked first aid kits are readily available at all times. They will also have clear protocols in place for handling medical emergencies, including how to contact medical professionals or emergency services quickly.
  • Emergency Contacts: Participants will be asked to provide emergency contact information during registration, which will be readily available to the support staff in case of any health emergencies.

---

2. Mental Health Support

• Wellness Check-Ins:
  • The support staff will periodically check in on the emotional and mental well-being of participants, especially after intense sessions. This may include informal conversations during breaks, offering space for reflection, or providing resources for mental wellness.
• Confidential Support:
  • Mental Health Resources: The support staff will ensure that participants have access to mental health resources if needed, including access to a counselor or therapist for any participant who may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stressed.
  • Active Listening: Support staff will be trained to offer a compassionate and non-judgmental listening ear to participants who may be struggling with stress or other mental health issues. They will provide necessary referrals to professional help if needed.
• Stress Management:
  • The support staff will be encouraged to observe signs of participant stress and intervene when necessary. They will be familiar with basic stress-management techniques and ensure participants are aware of these tools, offering them during break times or as needed.

---

3. Managing Safety During Activities

• In-Person Activity Supervision:
  • The support staff will be responsible for ensuring that all activities, both physical (e.g., yoga or movement-based exercises) and discussion-oriented, are carried out safely. They will keep an eye on participants during group exercises and ensure no one engages in activities that may result in injury.
  • Movement Guidelines: For in-person activities like yoga or meditation, staff will make sure participants have enough space, and equipment like yoga mats are sanitized. They will also help participants with proper posture or alignment to prevent injury during physical exercises.
• Outdoor and Nature Walks:
  • If there are outdoor activities or nature walks included in the retreat, the support staff will be responsible for guiding participants safely, ensuring everyone is comfortable, and taking necessary precautions regarding environmental factors like weather, sun exposure, and hydration.
  • Water and Hydration: Staff will ensure that water stations are available throughout outdoor activities and encourage participants to stay hydrated, particularly during warmer months.

---

4. Online Health & Safety (for Virtual Participants)

• Secure Online Environment:
  • For virtual participants, the support staff will ensure that the online platform (e.g., the SayPro website or other platforms used) is secure, with appropriate access controls to prevent unauthorized access.
  • Technical Support for Online Participants: They will also monitor online session quality, ensuring that virtual participants are experiencing no technical difficulties and can engage comfortably with the content.
• Digital Well-being:
  • Given the nature of online participation, the support staff will remind virtual participants to take breaks from screens regularly, provide options for digital detox during longer sessions, and encourage mindfulness and relaxation practices.

---

5. Participant Feedback and Concerns

• Real-Time Incident Reporting:
  • The support staff will maintain an open channel for participants to report any safety or health concerns. This will include both physical health (e.g., injuries, sickness) and emotional health (e.g., distress or anxiety).
  • Addressing Concerns Promptly: If a participant expresses discomfort or safety concerns, the support staff will address the issue immediately, whether it involves assisting with a health problem or ensuring the participant feels safe and supported.
• Encouraging Open Communication:
