Kathy Dieringer wants to serve the NATA and bring 100% saturation of ATs in the secondary setting.

Greatest Memory in AT: Her mom was in poor healthy while attending her SWATA Hall of fame induction and could not get on stage.  Two AT friends picked up her mom and placed her on stage to be part of the ceremony for Kathy.

Ethnic Diversity in Athletic Training – 314

Natalie Trotter at the University of Arkansas and Meghan McKay at Baylor College of Medicine are leading the the EDAC for SWATA.

Shawn Ready joins the show to help co-host

We set a working definition of Ethnic Diversity and then get to why we need to look at Ethnic Diversity in Athletic Training.

Ever had to treat someone who spoke a different language?
     I really like Duolingo
Ever had an athlete put gasoline on a cut?
Ever had a parent not accept your diagnosis because you were a female?
Sent an athlete for medical clearance to get a note from Mexico?

We as athletic trainers must understand the population we are working with and from there create plans build relationships, bridge gaps and improve medicine.

AIRROSTI – An Introduction – 185

AIRROSTI is an acronym for Applied Integration for the Rapid Recovery of Soft Tissue Injuries

It seems like everyone has the solution to getting better faster, but very few work or are based on evidence.  Amy Davila and Ryan Pratt joined me to talk about the science and personal experience behind ARROSTI.  I am always curious about new things so they decided to let us see for ourselves.

Email Ryan Pratt and tell you heard about a special deal for athletic trainers from the Sports Medicine Broadcast so you can test out ARROSTI for free.
