McDonogh's three full-time athletic trainers work together to provide preventative services, emergency care, and clinical interventions for our student-athletes during their time at McDonogh School. The Sports Medicine team collaborates closely with coaches, the Strength and Conditioning team, and the Infirmary internally, and with the University of Maryland Medical System externally, to provide high-quality healthcare for all athletes in their care.
The National Athletic Trainers' Association defines athletic trainers as highly qualified, multi-skilled health care professionals specifically trained in the prevention, examination, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of medical conditions and emergent, acute, and chronic injuries.
Athletic training is recognized by the American Medical Association, Health Resources and Services Administration, and the Department of Health and Human Services as an allied health care profession.
At McDonogh, our athletic trainers are educated in and work in the following areas:
