Off campus or at an Away event

When available, an athletic trainer will travel to away games with some athletic teams. If an athlete is injured while on the road, he/she should report that injury to the host school athletic trainer, his/her coach, and then to the Northridge HS athletic trainer as soon as possible following their injury.

Contact the athletic training room for assistance should an injury which appears minor one day and becomes more bothersome the next day. It is strongly recommended that you contact the sports medicine staff before taking your child to the physician of your choice. Often, the athletic trainer can eliminate unneeded waiting time and have your child seen in a timely fashion.

It is always your right as a parent to seek further medical care for your child if you have any doubts as to the seriousness of his/her injury. If you do seek further medical advice, please provide the athletic trainer updates.

If you are concerned about an injury that your child suffered during athletic practices or events/meets, please call or email the athletic trainer.

Anytime you take your child to a physician for an athletic injury we ask that you obtain in writing the doctor's instructions for treatment and return to play guidelines for us to appropriately (and legally) treat your child.
