Ensuring that students are able to safely participate in school athletics takes a team effort. That team includes parents, students, private healthcare providers and, of course, key school officials, including school nurses, school physicians, athletic directors, coaches and athletic trainers. For the 24-25 school year, major changes were made to the process for student athlete clearance, including revised forms and new limitations on information that is to be shared with school officials, absent parental consent. This podcast episode will highlight the key aspects of the revised student athlete clearance process, ongoing obligations to address any new medical issues that school officials may become aware of, and strategies for ensuring that necessary information is shared between students, parents, healthcare providers and school officials in order to promote the health and safety of all student athletes.
