NOTE: Should your child have an Emergency Injection Device (Epi-Pen), Diabetic Condition, Asthmatics with a rescue inhaler, or other special medical condition, it is important to provide a clear description as to the nature of the medical condition and any medication. This is important for situations where the youth becomes unable to selfadminister these treatments and to communicate with Emergency Response Personnel. If a child, who is normally able to self-administer these medications becomes unable to
self-administer or is in distress, youth ministers, volunteers, or other parish personnel will immediately call 911 to summon Emergency Medical Personnel to respond to the
medical emergency. Youth ministers, volunteers, and other parish personnel are NOT trained to administer these types of emergency medications.

CONSENT TO PARTICIPATE AND LIABILITY RELEASE
I, _________________________________________ the parent/guardian/conservator of ________________________ (child name)
grant permission for my son/daughter to participate in all youth activities and functions.
I understand that as parent/guardian/conservator, I remain legally responsible for any personal actions taken by my son/daughter. I recognize the
inherent risk associated with the various youth activities that my son/daughter will be participating in. I agree on behalf of myself, my son/
daughter named herein, my heirs, successors, and assigns to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish, All Saints
Parish and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas, their employees and/or volunteers from any and all claims (unless due to the Sole or Gross
NEGLIGENCE of the Parish) for illness, injury, death, and the cost of medical treatment therewith, arising from or in any way connected with my
son/daughter participating and/or attending the various youth programs and activities during this formation year noted above.
In the event any legal action is taken by either party against the other party to enforce any of the terms and conditions of this release, it is agreed
that the unsuccessful party to such action shall pay to the prevailing party therein all reasonable court costs, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the prevailing party.
AUDIO/VISUAL RECORDING AND PHOTOGRAPHY CONSENT
On occasion, video recordings, audio recordings, photographic slides, and photographs are taken of children and youth during church and diocesan
sponsored activities. These are utilized in newsletters, websites, event promotion, advertisements and other printed media. As the State of Texas
does not prevent audio or video recording or the photographing of children/youth (with the exception of Senate Bill 1, Section 26.009, which deals
specifically with school districts), it does encourage parental consent. Additionally, current video recordings and photographs assist law enforcement agencies dealing with the Missing Children’s Program.
I consent to the use of such materials in which my child may appear. I release the staff and volunteers of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish and the
Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas from any liability connected with the use of my child’s picture or audio/video recording as part of any of the
above or similar activities.
AUTHORIZATION OF CONSENT TO TREAT MINOR
I, ____________________________________ am the (initial one) ___ parent ___ guardian or ___ conservator of
_____________________________ (child name), a minor, and as such do hereby authorize St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish and All Saints Parish, its youth ministry leaders, employees, contractors and volunteers as agent(s) for the undersigned to consent to any x-ray examination, anesthetic, medical, dental, or surgical diagnosis or treatment, and hospital care which is deemed advisable by, and is to be rendered under the general
or specific supervision of any physician or surgeon licensed under the laws of the jurisdiction where such diagnosis or treatment may be given,
whether such diagnosis or treatment is rendered at the office of said physician, at a hospital, or at any other location. It is understood that this
authorization is given in advance of any specific treatment or diagnosis, but is given to provide authority and power of treatment, or hospital care
which the aforementioned physician in the exercise of best judgment may deem advisable. This authorization is given pursuant to the provisions of
Chapter 32 of the Texas Family Code. This authorization shall remain effective throughout the specific event dates listed above. In consideration
of acceptance of this authorization, but without any time limitation and without any future right of revocation, I hereby release, defend and hold
harmless the Parish and Roman Catholic Diocese of Dallas (Diocese), their officers, directors, agents, employees, volunteers, youth ministry leaders, and contractors from all claims, liabilities and loss in any way arising out of or in connection with or relating to such treatment and treatment
decisions.
