  • Legal Depositions in Sports Medicine
    Contains 6 Component(s), Includes Credits

    In today's litigious society, it is critical for athletic trainers to have an understanding of the legal system and how to perform in a legal deposition. This session will simulate a formal legal deposition and will include a trial attorney with extensive experience in sports medicine cases interviewing an athletic trainer and team physician regarding their care of a fictitious athlete who sustained a concussion with complications secondary to initial care. The attorney will stop at different points in the deposition to provide feedback to attendees on rationale for lines of questioning and appropriate and inappropriate responses.
