Do You Know any Board Members?

I know two now.  Becoming a board member from humble beginnings like most of us in the secondary setting is attainable.

Mike Carroll, Tony Fitzpatrick and Cathy Supak are really good friends who have held many leadership positions in Athletic Training.  Mike and Tony have basically climbed the ladder all the way to become board members for the NATA and the BOC.  If you want to become a decision maker then listen to the ones who have done it from the bottom.
We are broadcasting live from the 2018 NATA expo in New Orleans.
We used Facebook live, YouTube Live, Instagram Live and even periscope to stream as many of the NATA 2018 Expo Interviews as possible.

Case Studies with Cathy – 434

Cathy Supak and Thomas Petmecky were student athletic trainers together at Southwest Texas State University.  That university has since deteriorated with age and a new one has been built to replace it called Texas State University

They have 66 years of experience combined and have seen many things that seem strange or did just not seem right.

My favorite story is Thomas's last.  If nothing else skip to the end and here his last story of a kid putting his shoulder back in place.

Paradoxical Vocal Cord Disorder – 317

Myra Reed first experienced PVCD with an athlete, and has since had more than one athlete, especially distance runners.

Vocal Cord Disorder can easily be mistaken for Exercise Induced Asthma but is not the same.  Mayra recommends asking “is your inhaler working for you” to help figure out if it is truly asthma or maybe something else.  However some athletes have been diagnosed with both.

Pursed lip breathing: Form your lips as if whistling, breath in through the nose and out through the mouth focusing on slowing the breathing as you do 10 repetitions.
