What is Athletic Training?

The Pennsylvania State Practice Act defines the profession of Athletic Training as follows:

Athletic Training is the management and provision of care of injuries to a physically active person, with the direction of a licensed physician.  This includes the rendering of emergency care, development of injury prevention programs and providing appropriate preventative and supportive devices for the physically active person.  It also includes the assessment, management, treatment, rehabilitation and reconditioning of the physically active person whose conditions are within the professional preparation and education of a certified athletic trainer.
