“I think the call action is to ask or insist that our colleges look at their salary structure and how they could bring athletic trainers up to par so that they aren’t leaving the field.... If we spend our time at colleges breaking in all the new ones and then losing them, we lose that expertise that comes with time on the job,” Dr. Bill Roberts, chief medical officer of the @ACSMNews.

I want to wish the athletic trainers all over the nation the best of luck in the future & a BIG THANK YOU for the amazing job u do daily . THIS IS ATHLETIC TRAINERS MONTH - so please take a moment & say thanks to the trainers you know.
In opening remarks to a standing room only #NCAAconv session on the collegiate athletic trainer workforce, NCAA Chief Medical Officer Dr. @BrianHainline notes that there is no ATC shortage, but fewer ATCs want to work in colleges due to lack of respect, balance, & salary.
Dear @ESPNU@NCAASoccer can you please call us “athletic trainers” not just “trainers”. We are over worked and under paid, but deserve to be addressed correctly!
How about we start looking at the “AT crisis” from the perspective of the actual healthcare provider…
They go to school for 6 years.
They have a Masters degree.
Avg salary of provider with Masters degree in US is $76K.
There is a shortage of institutions and organizations WILLING to pay Athletic Trainers what they are worth.
AT value doesn’t start when they engage their first patient…
It has been accumulating during countless hours of classroom and clinical education.
Tomorrow we @go4ellis will get to educate an entire school district and their leaders.

Drake and the NBA Stars don’t respect him, but Noah Lyles is RIGHT.
The NBA is the best basketball league in the World but that doesn’t make the NBA Champs the WORLD CHAMPIONS.
