National Athletic Training Month

            You may have seen an Athletic Trainer rushing to tend to an injured athlete, but that’s not all that Athletic Trainers are qualified to do.  Athletic Trainers are trained in prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries.

            March is National Athletic Training Month, and we, at Mile Bluff Medical Center, would like to recognize the Athletic Training staff for their contribution to our facility and the communities we serve.  The five MBMC Athletic Trainers provide services to seven area schools, lead exercise classes at Terrace Heights and Colonial Manor, lead Wet & Well classes in both Mauston and Necedah, and provide many supportive roles in the MBMC facility.

            Please join us in recognizing the Athletic Trainers during the month of March.
