Abstract

California is the lone state without state-based legislation regulating the practice of athletic trainers. This article reviews legal issues relevant to licensed athletic trainers as allied health care providers. A discussion of duty of care, primary assumption of risk, the athletic trainer as a health care provider, and title protection is included.
