Athletic training encompasses the prevention, examination, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of emergent, acute, or chronic injuries and medical conditions. Athletic training is recognized by the American Medical Association (AMA), Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as an allied health care profession. 

St. Luke’s has assembled a team of highly qualified licensed athletic trainers that work with your athletic program and your athletes to set a new standard for comprehensive training and sports medicine services.  Your athletic trainer will be present before, during, and after practices and games to provide immediate medical care for acute and chronic injuries.  Athletic trainers work closely with and array of individuals including coaches, sports medicine physicians, certified personal trainers, physical therapists, nutritionists, and sports psychologists.    

Athletic Trainers are the first line of care for athletes on and off the field
