March is National Athletic Training Month! Big thanks to @KXAN_News for inviting Megan Plumb on set to talk about athletic training and how to support local school athletic programs. https://t.co/SYRk9c17NM. #NATM2018
Does anyone know how many continuing education hours athletic trainers need to keep their credentials? Answer to be revealed tomorrow... @NATA1950@aSaferApproach#NATM2018
Let us introduce committee member @a_nalepaATC_LAT! Keep following this month on twitter and FB as we introduce our committee members and highlight other influential YPs #NATM2018@NATA1950
Athletic Trainers (ATs) are health care professionals who collaborate with physicians. The services provided by ATs comprise prevention, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. @NATA1950#NATM2018
ATs specialize in patient education to prevent injury and re-injury, which reduces rehabilitative and other health care costs @NATA1950@aSaferApproach#NATM2018
Many athletic trainers work outside of athletic settings; they provide Physical Medicine and
Rehabilitation (PMR) and other services to people of all ages. @NATA1950@aSaferApproach#NATM2018
Academic curriculum and clinical training follow the medical model. Athletic trainers must graduate from an accredited baccalaureate or master’s program; 70 percent of ATs have a master’s degree. #NATM2018
The #AHA recommends logging at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise, or 75 minutes of vigorous activity, or a combination of the two, every week #athletes#ncaa@HealthyHilltop
