The Athletic Training Staff <strong>of</strong> <strong>UNC</strong>W is committed to treating each individual with<br />

respect, and believes that each individual has a right to pr<strong>of</strong>essional, comprehensive, and<br />

humane care which protects his/her dignity, privacy, shows respect for his/her lifestyle<br />

and allows the patient to make informed participative choices in their health care.<br />

Department <strong>of</strong> Athletic Training Philosophy<br />

The main premise <strong>of</strong> the <strong>UNC</strong>W Athletic Training Department is that we care. This may<br />

be a simple idea, but we truly care about our pr<strong>of</strong>ession and the student-athletes. It is the<br />

philosophy <strong>of</strong> the Athletic Training staff that all student-athletes will be treated fairly and<br />

ethically regardless <strong>of</strong> sport, age, gender, race, color or religion. In addition, the Athletic<br />

Training staff will provide the best possible medical care within the confines <strong>of</strong> the<br />

resources that are available. Respect will be given to all, and the same will be expected<br />

in return.<br />

Our primary goal is to always put the health and welfare <strong>of</strong> the athlete first. The Athletic<br />

Training staff will return all injured and ill athletes to participation as soon as the athlete<br />

is medically fit to participate without causing further harm.<br />
