The Relevance of Athletic Training to Public Health.
- Authors
McClaskey, David
- Abstract
The article discusses the contributions of athletic trainers and therapists (ATs) to the advancement of national public heath. It is said that the services provided by ATs to the public remain largely unrecognized and underdeveloped, and are therefore utilized. These services include reducing healthcare cost, improving healthcare quality and preventing and managing diseases. Research is reportedly needed to establish ATs' relevance and their positive influence on public health.
