Meeting participants may include Athletic Trainer(s) and AT students, physicians, facilities management personnel, Boston University Police, Boston University EMS as well as ambulance staff.

Practice & Competition Coverage

Medical coverage is the responsibility of the Athletic Training Department and is operationally defined as scheduling athletic trainers, physicians, and/or other licensed healthcare personnel to be available for the urgent and emergent healthcare needs of a team or group participating in sanctioned varsity and club team practices and competitions, and ROTC training and testing.

Decisions regarding medical coverage are determined by the Athletic Training Department and based on the following:

• Potential for a catastrophic medical event
• Classification & impact risk of the sport
• Impact expectation (e.g., contact/collision) of the sport
• Published and internal data on injury rate and injury risk
• Number and characteristics of individuals participating
• Location / Environment
• Availability of athletic trainers and physicians

Weather: Lightning, Cold & Heat

These weather policies outline our protocols for lightning, cold, and heat to ensure safety during extreme weather conditions.
