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, Health Resources Services Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services as an allied health care profession.

Athletic Trainers (ATs) are highly qualified, multi-skilled health care professionals who render service or treatment, under the direction of or in collaboration with a physician, in accordance with their education, training and the state's statutes, rules and regulations. As a part of the health care team, services provided by ATs include primary care, injury and illness prevention, wellness promotion and education, emergent care, examination and clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. The NATA Code of Ethics states the principles of ethical behavior that should be followed in the practice of athletic training. 

Please note that athletes who are injured should not return to sports until they are cleared to do so by their physician, the school’s orthopedic physician and St. Benedict’s Prep's certified Athletic Trainer. Those who see a physician must have written physician clearance to return to sports. St. Benedict’s Prep's Athletic Trainer works directly under the supervision of a physician. Dr. Michael Shindle of Total Orthopedics and Sports Medicine is our team orthopedic physician. Dr. Shindle is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon who oversees all of SBP’s athletic-related injuries. 

If you take your child to a doctor, please bring our physician evaluation form with you. This allows the doctor to indicate any treatment or rehabilitation that can be provided at school, and also to indicate return to play status. Please have the physician complete this form and then have the athlete return the form to the athletic training office.

Minor injuries that have been evaluated by the athletic training staff that do not require a physician evaluation need only to be cleared by one of the Athletic Trainers to return to play. Regarding concussions, please note we follow return-to-play guidelines as determined by our school policy and state law, based on the latest published guidelines. If your doctor indicates “no concussion” or a return-to-play procedure that differs from our school policy, it must be approved by our school physician.
