Hi Tory can you talk about the importance of mental health care for high school athletes and the role of ATs in those situations
I need to go look at the checklist!
Medical background of an athletic trainer?
Great information!
Always great hearing you talk about the importance of our profession Tory! I’ll seeya in November for the Iowa NU game
The benefit of an AT at a school daily is incredibly valuable in so many ways. From mentor to mental health to physical health to confidant to educator for both the HS athlete and parent is so important!
Tricky situation to navigate!

What do ATs learn in school?
Amanda, athletic trainers education is comprised of prevention, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions.
There are definitely no two days that are the same! Love being an athletic trainer! ❤️❤️

Thank you! Great information.
Interesting
Amanda, to add on… the nata.org website has a more in depth description of the educational competencies that athletic trainers have to learn while in school and maintain certification by completing continuing education units once board certified. I hope this will help you find your answer.
So proud of you!!

I have 5 Children. They all played little league, middle school, high school and college sports. They played volleyball, basketball, football, softball and baseball.
I have a safety tip to offer that I learned at a little league help meeting years ago here in Oklahoma after a child went missing from a game once:
Don’t personalize your vehicle, bags, water bottles etc. with your child’s name and number. Those cute stickers that say “Rebecca #21” that have the profile of a soccer player? They give predators 3 clues about where and when to find your kid. Then, all they do is go to the field near your vehicle, find #21, yell “Rebecca!!” And tell her some line about her parents being in an accident and we have to “Go quick!”
Boom!
Predator has your kid.
Since then, all my personalized stuff has just said “Bulldog Momma” or the like. Let them try to kidnap ME! Ha!!
My son plays football, baseball and basketball. He just got injured after his first football game sophomore year by breaking his foot. So needless to say he will be out for the season.
