22 The Athletic Trainer Charged with injury prevention and health care provision for the athlete Athletic trainer deals with the athlete and injury from its inception until the athlete returns to full competition

23 Roles and Responsibilities: Performance Domains
Prevention of athletic injuries Clinical evaluation and diagnosis Immediate care of injuries Treatment, rehabilitation and reconditioning of athletic injuries Health care administration Professional responsibilities

24 Education Council In 1998 the Education Council was established to dictate the course of the educational preparation for the student athletic trainer Focus has shifted to competency based education at the entry level Education Council has significantly expanded and reorganized the clinical competencies and proficiencies

25 Athletic Training Education Competencies
Twelve Content Areas Risk management Pathology of injuries and illnesses Assessment and evaluation Acute care Pharmacological aspects of injury and illness Therapeutic modalities

26 Athletic Training Education Competencies
Therapeutic exercise General medical conditions and disabilities Nutritional aspects of injury and illnesses Psychosocial intervention and referral Organization and administration Professional responsibilities

27 Personal Qualities of the Athletic Trainer
Stamina and the ability to adapt Empathy Sense of humor Communication Intellectual curiosity Ethical practice

28 Athletic Trainer and the Athlete
Major concern on the part of the ATC should be the athlete All decisions impact the athlete The injured athlete must always be informed Be made aware of the how, when and why that dictates the course of injury rehabilitation

29 The athlete must be educated about injury prevention and management
Instructions should be provided regarding training and conditioning Inform the athlete to listen to his/her body in order to prevent injuries

30 Athletic Trainer and Parents
ATC must keep parents informed, particularly in the secondary school setting Injury management and prevention The parents decision regarding healthcare must be a primary consideration Insurance plans may dictate care Selection of physician

31 ATC, physician and coaches must be aware and inform parents of Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Regulates dissemination of health information Protects patient’s privacy and limits the people who could gain access to medical records

32 Responsibilities of the Team Physician
Athletic trainer works under direct supervision of physician Physician assumes a number of roles Serves to advise and supervise ATC Physician and ATC must be able to work together Have similar philosophical opinions regarding injury management Helps to minimize discrepancies and inconsistencies

33 Roles and Responsibilities
Compiling medical histories and conducting physical exams Pre-participation screening Diagnosing injury Deciding on disqualifications Decisions regarding athlete’s ability to participate based on medical knowledge and psychophysiological demands of sport

34 Attending practice and games Commitment to sports and athlete
Potentially serve as the academic program medical director Coordinates and guides medical aspects of program Provides input into educational content and provides programmatic instruction

36 Coach must be aware of risks associated with sport
Provide appropriate training and equipment Must have knowledge of CPR and first aid Must have thorough knowledge of skills, techniques and environmental factors associated with sport Develop good working relationships with staff, including athletic trainers Must be a cooperative relationship

37 Referring the Athlete to Other Personnel
ATC must be aware of available medical and non-medical personnel Athlete may require special treatment outside of the “traditional” sports medicine team Must be aware of community based services and various insurance plans Typically the ATC and team physician will consult on the particular matter and refer accordingly

38 The Players on the Sports Medicine Team
Physicians Dentist Podiatrist Nurse Physicians Assistant Physical Therapist Athletic Trainer Massage Therapist Ophthalmologist Dermatologist Gynecologist Exercise Physiologist Biomechanist Nutritionist Sport Psychologist Coaches Strength & Conditioning Specialist Social Worker Neurologist Osteopath Psychiatrist

39 Employment Settings for the Athletic Trainer
Employment opportunities are becoming increasingly diverse Dramatic transformation since 1950 Due largely in part to the efforts of the NATA Started out primarily in the collegiate setting, progressed to high schools and are now found primarily in hospital and clinic settings

40 Settings include: Secondary schools Colleges and universities
Professional teams Sports medicine clinics Corporate/Industrial settings Military Physician extenders Medical supply & equipment sales Research Administration

41 Treating the Physically Active
Consists of athletic, recreational or competitive activities Requires physical skills and utilizes strength, power, endurance, speed, flexibility, range of motion and agility

42 The Adolescent Athlete
Focuses on organized competition A number of sociological issues are involved How old or when should a child begin training? Skeletal maturity presents some challenges with respect to healthcare Physically and emotional adolescents can not be managed the same way as adults

43 The Aging Athlete Physiological and performance capability changes overtime Function will increase and decrease depending on point in lifecycle May be the result of both biological and sociological effects High levels of physiological function can be maintained through an active lifestyle The impact on long-term health benefits have been documented beginning an exercise program

44 Exercise program should be gradual and progressive as long as no unusual signs or symptoms develop
Individuals over age 40 should have a physical and exercise testing before engaging in an exercise program

45 Recognition and Accreditation of the Athletic Trainer as an Allied Health Professional
June AMA officially recognized athletic training as an allied health profession Committee on Allied Health Education and Accreditation (CAHEA) was charged with responsibility of developing essentials and guidelines for academic programs to use in preparation of individuals for entry into profession through the Joint Review Committee on Athletic Training (JRC-AT)

46 June 1994-CAHEA dissolved and replaced immediately by Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) Recognized as an accreditation agency for allied health education programs by the U.S. Department of Education Entry level college and university athletic training education programs at both undergraduate and graduate levels are now accredited by CAAHEP

47 In 2003, JRC-AT became an independent accrediting agency
JRC-AT would accredit athletic training education programs without involvement of CAAHEP JRC-AT will seek affiliation with CHEA once it is fully independent CHEA is a private nonprofit national organization that coordinates accreditation activity in the United States Recognition by CHEA will put JRC-AT on the same level as other national accreditors, such as CAAHEP CAAHEP accreditation will be discontinued in 2006; JRC-AT will begin in 2007

48 Effects of CAAHEP accreditation are not limited to educational aspects
In the future, this recognition may potentially affect regulatory legislation, the practice of athletic training in nontraditional settings, and insurance considerations Recognition will continue to be a positive step in the development of the athletic training profession

49 Accredited Athletic Training Education Programs
Entry-level athletic training education programs Undergraduate and graduate Advanced graduate athletic training education programs Designed for individuals that are already certified ATC’s

50 Specialty Certifications
NATA is in the process of developing specialty certifications Further enhance professional development Aid in expanding scope of practice Specialty certifications build on entry level knowledge

51 Seven proposed areas Business practice, medical care management, occupational health, wellness, pediatric/adolescent health, adult/geriatric health, special health populations Candidates will have to complete experiential requirements and pass a standardized examination

52 Requirements for Certification as an Athletic Trainer
Must have extensive background in formal academic preparation and supervised practical experience Guidelines are set by the National Athletic Trainers’ Association Board of Certification (NATABOC)

53 Examination consist of the following:
Upon meeting the educational guidelines applicants are eligible to sit for the examination Examination consist of the following: Written portion Practical portion Written simulation Exam assesses the 6 domains Prevention of injuries Evaluation and diagnosis Immediate care of injuries Treatment, rehabilitation & reconditioning Organization and administration Professional responsibility

54 BOC certification is a prerequisite for licensure in most states
Upon passing the certification examination = BOC certification as an athletic trainer Credential of ATC BOC certification is a prerequisite for licensure in most states

55 Continuing Education Requirements
Ensure ongoing professional growth and involvement Requirements that must be met to remain certified 80 CEU’s over the course of three years

56 Purpose: To encourage ATC to obtain current professional development information To explore new knowledge in specific areas To master new athletic training related skill and techniques To expand approaches to effective athletic training To further develop professional judgement To conduct professional practice in an ethical and appropriate manner

57 CEU’s are awarded for: Attending symposiums, workshops, seminars
Serving as a speaker or panelist Certification exam model Participating in the USOC program Authoring a research article; authoring/editing a textbook Completing post-graduate work Obtaining CPR and first aid certification

58 State Regulation of the Athletic Trainer
During the early-1970s NATA realized the necessity of obtaining some type of official recognition by other medical allied health organizations of the athletic trainer as a health care professional Laws and statutes specifically governing the practice of athletic training were nonexistent in virtually every state

59 Athletic trainers in many individual states organized efforts to secure recognition by seeking some type of regulation of the athletic trainer by state licensing agencies To date 40 of the 50 states have enacted some type of regulatory statute governing the practice of athletic training Rules and regulations governing the practice of athletic training vary tremendously from state to state

60 Regulation may be in the form of:
Licensure Limits practice of athletic training to those who have met minimal requirements established by a state licensing board Limits the number of individuals who can perform functions related to athletic training as dictated by the practice act Most restrictive of all forms of regulation

61 Certification Registration
Does not restrict using the title of athletic trainer to those certified by the state Can restrict performance of athletic training functions to only those individuals who are certified Registration Before an individual can practice athletic training he or she must register in that state Individual has paid a fee for being placed on an existing list of practitioners but says nothing about competency

62 Exemption State recognizes that an athletic trainer performs similar functions to other licensed professions (e.g. physical therapy), yet still allows them to practice athletic training despite the fact that they do not comply with the practice acts of other regulated professions Legislation regulating the practice of athletic training has been positive and to some extent protects the athletic trainer from litigation

63 Physical Therapist and Athletic Trainers
It is not unusual to find a physical therapist interested in sports and athletics working toward certification as an athletic trainer A certified athletic trainer interested in working with patients outside of the athletic population may work toward licensure as a physical therapist

64 Historically, the relationship between athletic trainers and physical therapists has been less than cooperative There has been failure to clarify the roles of each group in injury rehabilitation Academic preparation is similar Individual who holds a dual credential is more marketable

65 Future Directions for the Athletic Trainer
Will be determined by the efforts of the NATA and its membership Ongoing re-evaluation, revision and reform of athletic training education JRC-AT will become an accrediting agency Third party billing will gradually become the rule not the exception for ATC’s Standardization of state practice acts ATC’s will seek specialty certifications Expanding breadth and scope of practice

66 Increase in secondary school employment of ATC’s
Increase in recognition of ATC as a physician extender Potential for expansion in the military, industry, and fitness/wellness settings With general population aging = increased opportunity to work with aging physically active individuals Continue to enhance visibility through research and scholarly publication

67 Continue to be available for local and community meetings to discuss healthcare of the athlete
Increase recognition and presence internationally Most importantly, continue to focus efforts on injury prevention and to provided high quality healthcare to physically active individuals who are injured while participating in sport
