Bamboo U will do everything in our power to ensure you have a safe, exciting and educational learning experience with us. However we do need to ensure that you understand that you are still responsible for your own safety and well-being. Please read the following document carefully and sign at the bottom.

MEDICAL AND EVACUATION EXPENSES

It is the responsibility of the participant and their family to provide upfront payment for emergency services if required. In case of this unlikely event, a family member (or designee authorized to make decisions) must remain contactable at all times during the program and agree to be available to coordinate the return of the participant on the same day as receiving a call from Bamboo U management.

RULES AND REGULATIONS

PT Global Camp reserves the right to dismiss any person who is in breach of any rules as set forth by the Bamboo U program Instructors and support staff that is (in the judgment of the Bamboo U management) detrimental or disruptive to the program. This includes behavior that is disrespectful and / or harmful to one’s self, other members of the group, or the local community. In the highly unlikely event of a dismissal case, or in the event of a withdrawal for any reason during a program, it is understood that all fees and deposits are non-refundable. All costs associated with the departure are the responsibility of the individual.

Health Requirements and Safety Considerations:
Every Bamboo U program will likely involve varying levels of physical challenges and participants are encouraged to prepare adequately. In the event of a medical emergency, Bamboo U will help to procure medical treatment; however, we assume no liability regarding provision of medical care. Applicants are urged to check their insurance coverage for its adequacy when outside of their country, or to purchase travel health insurance.

I understand that associated risks may cause injury, property damage, illness, mental or emotional trauma, disability or death. I understand that the Bamboo U Staff will do everything in their power to maintain the safety of all participants. The following provides some but not all of these risks, hazards and dangers.
