COURSE OBJECTIVE:
Sports Medicine 3 emphasizes the student’s ability to apply concepts from previous Sports Medicine course work to real-world situations and scenarios. A priority will be placed on understanding the current research and evidence based practices affecting the practice of sports medicine professionals. Students will develop policies, procedures, and guidelines based on these aspects, as well as explore detailed treatment and rehabilitation procedures for common athletic injuries. Students are expected to participate in clinical situations either at school with their athletic department or in an outside clinical setting for real world experience. State Standards say: It is highly recommended that students complete a 40-hour work-based learning experience while completing this course. To count as a WBL experience for career readiness, all 40 hours must be completed at the same facility. Please see link below for all other SM3 State Standards.

Heat packs in class are much more relaxing then the ice bucket, learning modalities by trying them.
Looking forward to bring this class back. Due to COVID restrictions on healthcare facilities we have not had this class in 2 years and it was taught by a pervious teacher before that. There is expected observation hours as part of state standards.
