Caring for Student Athletes

Did you know that Essentia Health’s certified athletic trainers give more than 30,000 hours of patient care and over 72,000 hours of sports medicine services every year to local athletes?

Your local student athletes work hard to make their team, school, and community proud. We want to support them.

That’s why our sports medicine professionals provide care before, during, and after practices and games. Our athletic trainers may:

• Educate and advise athletes on injury prevention
• Conduct baseline testing and post-injury concussion testing
• Evaluate athletes for injuries and concussions during practices and games
• Provide preventive care, such as taping
• Coordinate care for student athletes
