Athletic Training Preceptorship I

What you’ll be able to do

• Apply athletic training skills from all previous coursework (e.g. patient intake, physical examination, differential diagnosis, intervention planning, and execution of treatment plans) and new skills as acquired in concurrent courses.

• Apply interpersonal, clinical exam skills, including differential diagnoses, and therapeutic interventions in patient encounters as directed by clinical preceptor for various conditions (e.g. acute, chronic and emergent).

• Identify operational policies (e.g. clinical hours, facility standards, hygiene) and practices (e.g. emergency plans, documentation) for your assigned clinical setting.

• Demonstrate adherence to appropriate ethical behaviors and professional boundaries.

• Develop strategies for future patient interactions through hands-on clinical experience, preceptor feedback, and written reflection of patient encounters.

• Interpret information gained from patient encounters and preceptor feedback to practice clinical decision-making skills in a progressively autonomous fashion.

• Appraise student documented patient-encounter information to assess specific learner needs in the interest of progressing to autonomous practice.
