LINCOLNTON, N.C. - In honor of National Athletic Training Month, Lincoln County Schools (LCS) would like to recognize the athletic trainers that work with our student athletes across the county. LCS has enjoyed a partnership with Atrium Health to provide each high school with a licensed athletic trainer for several years now.

As healthcare professionals they are highly educated and dedicated to the job at hand, Athletic trainers are found in high schools and colleges, corporations, professional sports, the military, performing arts, clinics, hospitals and physician offices.
Atrium Health athletic trainers are nationally certified, and state licensed to provide healthcare services to patients in a variety of settings. Athletic trainers are tasked with providing care in injury prevention, recognition, evaluation, treatment and rehabilitation. They work under the guidance of an Atrium Health sports medicine physicians Dr. Jeffrey Ham and Dr. Deanna Didiano.
