Join our Program Team
We pride ourselves on hiring top quality staff who are able to provide the best possible experience for our
campers. We recognize that staff living with type 1 diabetes can play a vital role in encouraging campers to make positive steps towards managing their diabetes. As such, staff living with type 1 diabetes must be aware that campers will be watching how they are managing their disease and we expect you to check your blood glucose and take insulin in front of the campers, while working with the healthcare team to manage your highs and lows.
Individuals who are not living with diabetes are also encouraged to apply. Staff that is best suited will be offered positions regardless of their diabetes status.
Minimum Requirements for ALL Positions: Standard First Aid and CPR ‘C’, Criminal Reference Check and Vulnerable Sector Screening (MUST be dated in 2013). Additional certifications are an asset and are considered when evaluating.

“The new friendships with peers and relationships with healthcare providers that are made at diabetes camp can serve to heighten a child’s sense that he or she is not alone, and that there is a strong support system ready to help the camper live successfully with diabetes.”
-Dr. Dan Metzger, Medical Director,
Camp Kakhamela, Gibsons, BC
