Sports Medicine & Athletic Training

Clarinda Regional Health Center’s (CRHC) Sports Medicine Department provides health related services to benefit local coaches and student athletes. In addition to our orthopedic department, we currently offer comprehensive rehabilitation and sport medicine services which are provided to personalize coverage of school based athletic programs.

Meet Our Athletic Trainer

Our certified athletic trainer, Logan Wood, works with Clarinda student athletes in the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of injuries, and work closely with physicians to coordinate care and faster access to appointments. Research shows that schools served by certified athletic trainers show an increase in student athlete participation in school.

Athletes of all ages and skill levels can benefit from their experience and advice to improve performance and avoid injury.
