COURSE DESCRIPTION
In addition to the stresses of everyday life, a student-athlete’s mental health can be impacted by a wide range of factors including body image concerns, concussion-related elements, sports performance stresses, and injury management. Due to the day-to-day interactions athletic trainers and other sports medicine professionals have with their patients, they are in a prime position to observe a patient’s mental health status and identify when a referral or intervention is warranted. The NATA recommends having a psychological referral protocol in place for these types of cases. This half-day course will address some of these mental health concerns related to student-athletes and how they can be effectively identified and appropriately treated through a referral process.
