Athletic Training Education Program Affiliate Sites
Athletic training students primary clinical experiences will be on the Lee University campus. The ATEP will utilize off campus clinical and field experiences, such as football and other diversified experiences, to enhance the clinical education and field experiences of athletic training students. The campus health clinic plays an important role as students begin learning general medical conditions as they relate to the well being of physically active individuals. Bradley Rehabilitation, the Center for Sports Medicine and Orthopedics, and Tri-State Rehabilitation are utilized to provide educational experience that will allow the student to gain experience in a non-traditional environment. These rotations are designed to enhance the upper/ and lower extremity and general medical experiences. The physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and athletic trainers supervise, instruct, and guide students through clinical education experiences. Ooltewah High School will provide students experience in an equipment intensive environment in high-risk sports such as football and wrestling.
Students are responsible for transportation to and from clinical sites and all costs incurred. The following traveling distances from Lee University to clinical sites are approximated:
- Center for Sports Medicine and Orthopaedics - 25 miles
- Bradley Rehabilitation Center - 4 miles
- Ooltewah High School - 16 miles
- Tri-State Rehabilitation - 3.5 miles
