Use of Injury Record Sheets and Issues with Injury Record Charts by Student Trainers

Abstract

Students engaged in injury survey. Students used the record chart to identify and reflect on injury, basic conditioning information, reporting to coach, and sharing information among trainers. They also identified challenges in recording and collecting the information as: informing the athletic department, forgetting to keep records, communicating with players, and writing the information. Faculty members need to understand the challenges students face in their practice and provide guidance and advice.
