Sports Medicine at Central Connecticut State University
 Sports
Medicine at Central Connecticut State University has two basic and
essentially interrelated functions: Service to the
intercollegiate athletic teams and Education in the
Athletic Training Education Program leading to the Bachelor of Science
degree.
The athletic training program 1) provides quality
health care to the student athletes of
the university, and 2) to prepare
the student athletic trainer to assume the role of an entry-level athletic
trainer upon graduation.
The athletic training staff strives to protect and
return the injured student athlete to sport participation as quickly and
safely as possible. The athletic training staff possesses knowledge in
injury prevention; injury recognition, evaluation, and assessment;
immediate care; and the treatment, rehabilitation, and reconditioning of
athletic injuries. The staff maintains current in knowledge and skills
through participation in regular in-services and attendance at educational
conferences annually.
