Mayfield: New Sports Medicine Class Embraces Body, Mind and Spirit
Mayfield Senior School has added Sports Medicine to its curriculum this year. This exciting course covers an overview of anatomy and physiology of the human body, the many systems of the body, how these systems react and interact with each other through sport and how sports injuries should be addressed and treated. Here, Mrs. Arguelles, Assistant Athletic Director/Athletic Trainer is teaching how to properly treat lacerations, abrasions and avulsions. The course includes instruction in human anatomy, biological sciences, training in first aid, CPR, nutrition, exercise physiology, injury care, and management. In keeping with Holy Child traditions, the new Sports Medicine class offers an intellectually challenging and creative platform by placing equal value on the heart, mind, body and spirit and instilling a natural confidence in our students that grows steadily into success.
