Wheelock College has a complete athletic training facility on campus to prevent, diagnose, treat, and rehabilitate athletic-related injuries. The athletic training room is staffed by a licensed certified athletic trainer (ATC) at all times. The athletic training room hours vary by season, but the room is always open two hours before practices and three hours before games.

The goal of Wheelock College's Athletic Training Department is to provide the highest quality of health care services to our student-athletes. Our head athletic trainer acts as liaison between coaches, student-health, administrators, team physicians, and student-athletes. The athletic trainer also advises coaches and administrators about the status of student-athletes in order to maintain optimal performance and minimize loss from competition. All student-athletes are required to fill out necessary medical forms before participating in on-campus varsity sports. The athletic trainer maintains up-to-date medical files on all student-athletes, including those regarding injury and illnesses, and is in charge of screening, prevention and in-season injury management. Every student-athlete is mandated to attend a preseason orthopedic evaluation to establish a baseline health criterion.
