Injury Discussion with Media or Other
Athletic Training Students are not to discuss athlete health status with anyone (i.e. peers, coaches, administration, radio, etc). Direct all inquiries to your supervising Preceptor. All public inquiries regarding injuries will be handled by supervising physician, clinical supervisor, or athletic coach. Discussing injuries is considered “breaching” the confidentiality of the athlete or patient and is punishable by law. (NOTE: also refer to HIPAA compliance)
