    Athletic training in the secondary school setting can be fraught with pitfalls that adversely affect delivery of high-quality, appropriate health care to our patients and take a toll on the AT’s quality of life. Developing a strong administrative program can alleviate some of these factors and let the AT focus on patient care. Establishing a new program, improving an existing program, and maintaining a healthy work culture can seem overwhelming. Setting priorities, learning to negotiate, establishing boundaries, and cultivating a support structure all play a role in a healthy work life ratio and medical autonomy.
