The role of a Certified Athletic Trainer

When am I available? I am available on campus every day for practice and game coverage. Should I not be there to service your injury needs, I do have a replacement that will come in to cover the days events. In rare instances there may not be coverage available. As we strive to maintain consistent care, coaches will be notified well in advance of such an occurrence. My hours are posted inside the window each week so that the athletes know when I am available to assist with their needs.

Where am I located? You can find me in P-40. It is the last portable as you head out to the football field.

So what it is that I do when I am on campus? As a Certified Athletic Trainer, I specialize in the prevention, recognition, management and rehabilitation of athletic injuries. Athletic Trainers are much different than personal trainers! A personal trainer works with individuals to monitor and/or change exercise habits. Athletic Trainers must hold at least a bachelor's degree, pass a written, oral, and written simulation exam, must abide by the National Organizations standards and guidelines, as well as keep abreast with the ever changing medical field by participating in continuing education.
