Athletic training
Northwestern student-athletes are cared for by four certified athletic trainers who focus on both the prevention and treatment of athletic injuries. Staff members are assisted by and supervise more than a dozen athletic training students enrolled in the college’s nationally accredited (CAATE) athletic training program. Together they provide evaluation, treatment, rehabilitation and referral in the event of an injury. The Raiders also have a team doctor who makes regular visits to campus to see injured athletes.
The college’s athletic training room is located in the Bultman Center for Health, Physical Education and Intercollegiate Athletics. The state-of-the-art facility includes four taping tables, three electric stimulation machines, two ultrasound machines, three whirlpools, two hydrocollators and a paraffin bath. Also housed in the Bultman Center is a human performance lab that enables students and professors in NWC’s kinesiology department to conduct research and perform assessments of physical fitness and levels of physical ability.
