Athletic Training Residency Program
St. Luke's Athletic Training Residency Program was founded in fall of 2011. The 12-month post-professional educational program for certified athletic trainers provides advanced preparation of athletic training practitioners through a planned program of clinical and traditional education in orthopedics.
A World-Class Residency for Athletic Trainers
St. Luke's Athletic Training Residency Program was the third program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE). The residency is housed with the physician practice setting at St. Luke's Orthopedics using an evidence-based approach to enhance the quality of patient care, optimize patient outcomes, and improve patient health-related quality-of-life.
As part of this program, you’ll practice advanced clinical decision-making skills with emphasis on managing physically active patients with an orthopedic diagnosis. You’ll be part of a multidisciplinary team working to optimize the management of orthopedic and sport-related injuries. And you’ll learn how to contribute to the athletic training profession and your orthopedic/sports medicine team through building research, teaching, and leadership skills.
