Sports Medicine – Rhode Island

August 4th, 2016 9:41 am

The primary goal of the University of Rhode Island sports medicine staff is to provide the best medical care possible to all varsity student-athletes. The entire medical staff is devoted to the education, health and injury care, prevention, evaluation and rehabilitation of athletic related injuries. The sports medicine staff is dedicated to returning athletes to their sport in the safest and quickest manner as possible.

The sports medicine staff is comprised of athletic trainers who are certified by the National Athletic Association, and are licensed by the state of Rhode Island. Athletic training students (interns), designated team physicians, team orthopedists and a host of medical consultants and sub-specialists supplement the primary staff.

The physical well-being of all URI student-athletes is our first priority. Treatment of all student-athletes, as a result of athletic injury, is administered by the Sports Medicine Department in conjunction with Student Health Services and our team physicians. The scope of the athletic training services encompasses various domains which include injury recognition, treatment, rehabilitation, prevention, education and counseling that will enable the athlete to maintain optimal quality of life beyond the span of athletic competition.

The main athletic training room is located in the Tootell Athletic Complex.
