7 Athletic Training Room Hours Athletic training services will be available at least one (1) hour prior to each home game report time. The athletic trainer (ATC) will be available until all home events are over. The athletic trainer (ATC) must be informed of practice/game schedules changes as soon as possible so athletic training services can be adjusted and provided. There will be times the athletic trainer (ATC) may not be able to provide service. In the event athletic training services are not provided all SUNY Adirondack Coaches will refer to the ATHLETIC MEDICAL EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN (EAP) regarding INJURY PROCEDURES.

The evaluation will be made at the event, at the time of the injury, or may be done in the athletic training room. Once an evaluation is made, the athletic trainer (ATC) will make the decision as to the nature and extent of the injury/illness of the student athlete. The athletic trainer (ATC) will then make the decision as to the appropriate treatment rehabilitation, conditioning and/or physician referral. The coach, athletic director, and parent or guardian will be notified as needed. The athletic trainer (ATC) will inform the student athlete's coach on any updated status. Away Contest Injury/Illness If an injury/illness occurs while a team is at an away contest and the athletic trainer (ATC) is not traveling with them, the host school's certified athletic trainer should evaluate the injury/illness and offer his/her recommendation. The coach will make note of the injury/illness and contact the athletic trainer (ATC) and/or leave a voice message on cell phone and/or office phone indicating the name, contact information and injury of the athlete. When successful contact is made with athletic trainer (ATC), at that time instructions will be provided to athlete and coach regarding injuries/iiinesses and their procedures. When contact is unsuccessful with athletic trainer the coach will instruct the athlete to see the athletic trainer (ATC) the next available day for further evaluation. The athlete needs to be instructed if their symptoms should progress, to activate EMS and/or contact another responsible individual for transportation to seek medical attention for further evaluation. If the student athlete chooses to seek medical attention that information needs to be provide as soon as possible to SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC). The coach should only give ICE to the athlete for pain and swelling. NEVER give the athlete any type of medication, creams or ointments.

8 Injury/Illness Report/Status An injury/illness report will be completed by the supervising coach or communicated either by phone, , voice mail, texting, fax, medical note or face to face conversation with the athletic trainer. If there is no report then it should be assumed that there is no significant injury... The injury reports are separated into four different playing status breakdowns. "OUT" This means the student athlete is not to practice at all. A physician and/or the athletic trainer (ATC) must clear the student athlete before returning to games and/or practice. The student athlete will have to go through some functional testing as well before returning to play. "QUESTIONABLE" This means the student athlete will have to be tested before he/she can resume practice. In some cases a student athlete will be under this listing because the athletic trainer (ATC) has not had any communication with him/her on that particular day. "GO AS TOLERATED" This is to let the coach know that a student athlete does still have an injury/illness and is or should be receiving treatment on a regular basis. Specific limitations are also addressed under the student athlete's name. Functional testing will be done prior to practice game and the results will be communicated to the coaches accordingly. Also, communication either by phone, , voice mail, texting, fax, medical note or face to face conversation from a MEDICAL PHYSICIAN (i.e.: MD, DO, DDS) to SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) and/or Athletic Director has permitted the athlete to return to participation with restrictions. "CLEARED" This means communication either by phone, , voice mail, texting, fax, medical note or face to face conversation from a MEDICAL PHYSICIAN (i.e.: MD, DO, DDS) to SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) and/or Athletic Director has permitted the athlete to return to full participation. Physician Referral An injured student athlete will be referred for further medical evaluation and diagnosis following these conditions: The athletic trainer (ATC) should evaluate the student athlete before the referral is made. If the athletic trainer (ATC) is not available in an emergency situation, the athlete should be sent to the nearest ER.. The injury/illness suffered by the student athlete requires care that exceeds the athletic trainers' (ATC) capabilities; the injury/illness is beyond the scope of athletic training or the facilities that are needed to treat the injury/iiiness are not avaiiable. The student athlete or the parents/legal guardian of the athlete request that the student athlete receive further medical evaluation. The student athlete maintains the right to seek a second opinion from another physician, but should communicate this to the athletic trainer (ATC). In the event the student athlete does not respond to treatment, normally 5 7 days, he/she may be referred to a physician. Proper follow up between the physician and the athletic trainer (ATC) will be carried out to ensure that the proper rehabilitation will be accomplished and that adequate information regarding the student athlete' s return to competition can be obtained.

9 Concussion Management Guidelines The Athletic Trainer (ATC) shall be empowered to determine management and return to play of any ill or injured student athlete, as he or she deems appropriate. Conflicts or concerns will be referred to our sports medicine physicians for remediation. The Athletic Trainer (ATC) has on file and annually updates an (EAP) Emergency Action Plan to respond to student athlete catastrophic injuries and illnesses, including but not limited to concussions, heat illness, spine injury, cardiac arrest, respiratory distress (e.g. asthma), and sickle cell trait collapses. The athletic trainer (ATC) shall review and practice the plan annually. SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) will educate all student athletes about the signs and symptoms of concussions prior to the start of their sports season. SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) will require student athletes to sign a statement in which student athletes accept the responsibility for reporting their injuries and illnesses to the athletic trainer including signs and symptoms of concussions. SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) shall have on file a written concussion management plan that specifically outlines the roles of the Athletic Trainer (ATC) and the student athlete. In addition, the following components have been specifically identified for the collegiate environment: a. SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) and other athletics healthcare providers will practice within the standards as established for their professional practice. b. When a student athlete shows any signs, symptoms or behaviors consistent with a concussion, the athlete will be removed from practice or competition, by either a member of the coaching staff or by the athletic trainer (ATC). If removed by a coaching staff member, the coach will refer the student athlete for evaluation by an athletic trainer (ATC). During competitions, on field injuries will be under the discretion of the official and playing rules of the sport. SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) will follow such rules and attend to medical situations as they arise. Visiting sport team members evaluated by SUNY Adirondack Athletic Trainer (ATC) will be managed in the same manner as SUNY Adirondack student athletes. c. A student athlete diagnosed with a concussion will be withheld from the competition or practice and not return to activity for at least the remainder of that day. Student athletes that sustain a concussion outside of their sport will be managed in the same manner as those sustained during sport activity. d. The student athlete will receive monitoring for deterioration. Athletes may be provided with written home instructions upon discharge; preferably with a parent, guardian, roommate, or someone that can follow the instructions. e. The student athlete will be monitored for recurrence of symptoms both from physical exertion and also mental exertion, such as reading, phone texting, computer games, watching television and/or film, athletic meetings, working on a computer, classroom work, or taking a test. Academic advisors and professors will be notified of student athlete's concussion if permitted by the student athlete. f. The student athlete will be evaluated by a team physician or the physician's designee as outlined within the concussion management plan. Once asymptomatic and post exertion assessments are within normal baseline limits, return to play shall follow a medically supervised stepwise process.
