Just so this is out there in the ether- the athletic training staff IS PART OF the medical staff. There is no need to separate "the medical and athletic training staffs" as two separate entities. They're not. Athletic Trainers are medical professionals.- The CDC says it's not broken, it's just fractured.
- Dislocating your knee (always an emergency) and dislocating your knee cap (usually non-emergent) are VERY different injuries and are not interchangeable in conversation. Thanks for coming to my TEDtalk.
- Every time an athletic trainer is allowed to handle a concussion without pushback, an angel gets its wings ✨
- If there's ever been two pictures that sum up what's important about being an AT, it's these two. @proatc @jesss152 this is what it's about, through all the hills and valleys.
- We Athletic Trainers are just wizards, living amongst muggles.wtf is this magic potion?????
- Well... It's officially shin splint, hamstring strain, and shoulder pain season.
- I'm officially a boy mom. Our little "Moose" was born at 2210 on Father's day, 6lb 13oz and 19.25". After a stressful venture into the world, he's doing better and we couldn't be more in love 🩵 . . . Yes, y'all only get his nickname. Nothing personal ✌️
- Even getting an award, they're taking care of him first. The hallmark of being an AT ❤️Damar Hamlin presenting the Pat Tillman Award for Service to the Bills' training staff at the @ESPYS is pretty awesome.
00:00 - Concussion care is gonna get a lot more fun. Slow reaction time? Let's play Bop It. Trouble with memory and concentration? I've got Simon Says. Gotta find ways to make a crappy injury less crappy, and dare I say ✨ f u n ✨
- ❤️ sometimes our job goes beyond the tapeJackson County Central trainer Caitlin Place and Redwood Valley senior Brode Lydick met up following today's game in Marshall. Lydick was the Redwood player injured in the team's first game in Jackson this season, sustaining a back injury.
- Jason Kelce said it best.... . Guardian caps don't do anything to prevent concussions. The league can tout player safety all they want but it's wasted breath and lip service for a fan base who doesn't know any better, and laughable to those of us that do.
