ATHLETIC TRAINERS

Athletic Trainers are the first responders when an athlete or spectator gets hurt at your tournament, game or practice. They handle the on-site diagnosis, treatment and care of the injury. Athletic trainers coordinate the larger medical response of arriving ambulances, fire departments or law enforcement in the case of catastrophic injury.

Athletic Trainers are multi-skilled healthcare professionals recognized by the American Medical Association (AMA). They are your partners, ready to assist with all facets of safety including planning, preparing, and enacting your safety protocols.

IN-APP INJURY REPORTING

The Go4 app has a built-in Electronic Medical Record documentation feature that allows athletic trainers to document injuries in the field. They can then email the record to the athlete, or the athlete’s parent, to take with them to the next in-line care; e.g., an emergency room, urgent care or family doctor. Having a copy of the report can also help speed up the claims process when dealing with an insurance company.

The records are also kept in a HIPAA compliant, secure cloud storage. So, in the event of a lawsuit related to the injury, the medical record can be subpoenaed to prove that care was provided and action was taken.

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN

Following Buffalo Bills’ Damar Hamlin’s injury, Emergency Action Plans have been front and center across all news outlets.

An Emergency Action Plan is a document that provides site specific information to mount a response to a medical or environmental emergency. 

When you post a job on the Go4 platform, an emergency action plan is auto-generated based on the job location. The EAP contains the nearest hospital and contact information for closest emergency services. Also included are the latitude and longitude of the location should the athletic trainer need to relay it to emergency services.

You can further optimize your EAP to include AED locations, on-site contact information and any other special instructions.
