Athletic Training

What is Athletic Training?

As a part of Beacon Bone & Joint, our licensed, certified Athletic Trainers work with our health care providers, physical therapists, surgeons and others, to provide comprehensive care. This continuum of care includes prevention, evaluation, treatment and rehabilitation, medical advice and referral.

Athletic Trainers are located in local high school and collegiate settings, working full-time with athletic teams and within the physician practice. Whether they’re assessing injuries, coordinating care, or communicating with patients, guardians or coaches, they are the first line of defense and medical care for those participating in physical activity.

Who can benefit from Athletic Training?

Individuals of all ages who are active and have sustained an injury may work with our Athletic Trainers. Maybe you play a club sport or meet up with your friends for a weekly tennis or pickleball match. Perhaps you bike or run for fun. If you hurt yourself or feel your performance is being held back due to an injury, we can help.

On-site medical coverage

Beacon certified Athletic Trainers are among the most well-respected in the area and provide medical care for athletic events and programs at all levels.
