The Adams State University Athletic Training Staff strives to create an environment in which student-athletes may receive care involving all domains of their health as defined by the NATA as an athletic trainer's scope of practice. These domains include: physical health, fitness, nutrition, psychological state, and emotional state to the extent that we are allowed. Athletic trainers will provide preventative rehabilitation, strengthening, and post-injury rehabilitation that approaches the total body health of the student-athlete from a holistic, and evidence-based perspective. It is the responsibility of the athletic training staff to complete comprehensive evaluations, refer the student-athlete when necessary to a more qualified healthcare provider, and design treatment and rehabilitation plans specific to the needs of the student-athlete. As an allied healthcare profession, we are required to abide by the rules, guidelines, and code of conduct that all medical professionals are held to. In return, we expect student-athletes to be active participants in their recoveries in order to get them back to competition as quickly and as safely as possible.
