SPORTS EMERGENCY COURSE

„Acute Intervention” is one of the core competencies of the IFSPT and also an integral part of the SSPA Accreditation (level C and above) recognized and supported by Swiss Olympics. Both theoretical and practical knowledge are necessary for any sport physiotherapist who is active with teams and/or individual athletes during training and competition. SSPA is committed to raise awareness of the importance of sports emergency management for sport physiotherapists. On the occasion of the 20th SSPA congress, and in order to promote and continuously improve the quality of sports physiotherapy in Switzerland, we’ll organize a Sports Emergency Course exclusively for our SSPA members on Saturday Nov 5. The course will cover the most important topics in this area, and will be led by Dr. Jeff Konin, PhD, ATC, PT, FACSM, FNATA, Florida International University.

    Important: number of participants limited to 30.
