Overview
The Emergency Care in Sport (ECS) course is designed to prepare sports medicine team members to manage emergency situations. Emergency situations may arise at any time during athletic events. Expedient action must be taken to provide the best possible care to the sport participant with emergency and life or limb threatening conditions.

Athletic organizations have a duty to develop an emergency plan that may be implemented immediately when necessary and to provide appropriate standards of emergency care to all sports participants. Emergency preparation involves formulation of an emergency plan, proper coverage of events, maintenance of appropriate emergency equipment and supplies, utilization of appropriate emergency medical personnel, and continuing education in emergency medicine. The ECS course features top healthcare professionals from across the country skilled in emergency medicine and includes both didactic presentations and hands-on skill laboratory sessions using scenario-based learning.

Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to:

  1. Develop an Emergency Action Plan
