Student-Athletes should report all injuries to Mr. Maison, the Certified Athletic Trainer before going to a doctor, so that the injury is documented and the school is aware of it.
Mr. Maison will provide a "TPS doctor-evaluation" form to be completed and returned to the Athletic Department, so SEE MR MAISON FIRST.
A doctor's clearance note is needed for all students who are evaluated by a physician/doctor, including injuries that were not sustained during a TPS athletic event. Notes can only be accepted from health care providers with the following credentials:
MD: Medical Doctor
PA: Physician Assistant
APN: Advanced Nurse Practitioner
Notes from the following providers CANNOT be accepted:
DC: Doctor of Chiropractic medicine
DPT: Doctor of Physical Therapy
PhD: Doctorate of Philosophy
Orthobionomist
RN: Registered Nurse
Personal Trainer (any organization)
Mr. Maison has the knowledge and means of caring for many minor sports injuries. Some injuries can be treated in-house at the athletic training room.
