The importance of expedient action cannot be overstated when the care of individuals are being considered. The efficacious work of those charged with the care and transporting injured individuals can only be improved by a well thought out and practiced plan. The three major components of an emergency plan include: the emergency team, communication, and equipment. Emergency Team Roles: A. Acute care to be provided by the most qualified individual at the scene. B. Emergency equipment retrieval- anyone familiar with the types and location of equipment (usually: student athletic trainer, coach, event staff) C. Activation of EMS-should be a person familiar with location and address of injury site. Should be a calm person with good communication skills. -Member of UConn team meets and directs emergency personnel to scene. Should have keys to gates, doors, etc. (Home game management staff should be involved).
