Sports Medicine
The Sports Medicine Team (physicians, athletic trainer, and physical therapist) develops a comprehensive injury care program that includes:
- injury prevention strategies
- proper, accurate assessment of injury type and severity
- appropriate first aid
- determining if and when an injured athlete can return to play
- referral of injured athlete, when indicated, to an appropriate medical facility
- rehabilitation programs to return injured athletes to practice and competition as quickly as possible with minimal risk of injury.
Several local physicians work with RCPS Athletic Teams to ensure that adequate care is provided to student athletes, and that they safely return to their activities with limited risk of further injury.
