chronic injuries health care professionals job settings
The basic principle of sports medicine is to promote health, wellness, and active lifestyle while preventing, diagnosing, and treating sports-related injuries and conditions. The primary goal of sports medicine is to help athletes and individuals of all ages and abilities achieve their full potential in sports and physical activities, while also minimising the risk of injury and promoting overall health and wellness.
​

A SMT is a fitness/ health professional who specialises in the prevention, assessment, treatment, and rehab of sports-related injuries. SMTs work with athletes of all ages and skill levels, from amateur to professional, to help them perform at their best and recover from injuries as quickly and safely as possible.

The role of a sports medicine trainer may vary depending on the specific setting in which they work. For example, SMTs may work with a sports team to provide injury prevention programs, evaluate and diagnose injuries, and develop treatment plans. They may also work in clinical or outpatient settings to provide rehabilitation services for athletes and individuals with sports-related injuries.
​

SMTs may have different educational and certification requirements depending on the specific job and region or country in which they work. Some SMTs may hold degrees in athletic training, physical therapy, or sports science, while others may have certifications in relevant areas of sports medicine, such as strength and conditioning, sports nutrition, or injury prevention and treatment.
