It is essential that students entering health care professions be well informed about the social determinants of health and be equipped with strategies to advocate for, engage with, and communicate with patients from a variety of backgrounds. For educators, Patient-Centered Care in Sports Medicine is aligned with the Patient-Centered Care core competency outlined by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE), and it prepares students to put patient-centered care into practice as they work with diverse individuals. Patient-Centered Care in Sports Medicine defines patient-centered care, explains its importance for every patient interaction, and shows how to model patient-centered care in daily practice. Students will come to better understand how social identities related to race, class, gender, and sexuality shape the patient–health care provider relationship, as well as how a provider’s own social identities may influence the care they provide. Self-assessment tools will help students evaluate their personal stereotypes, implicit biases, and prejudices, while patient-centered communication models provide guidance on eliciting crucial information from patients to make sure their needs are addressed. The second half of the book offers invaluable knowledge about the largest cultural groups within the United States, the LGBTQIA+ community, and individuals with disabilities. For each culture, the discussion addresses cultural information such as primary languages and communication styles, family structure, daily living and food practices, and more. This rich discussion allows students to build cultural awareness for use in their future careers. Throughout the text, chapter objectives, review questions, case studies, and key terms help students comprehend and retain the information presented. Athletic Training Professionals in Their Own Words sidebars feature noted athletic trainers discussing their experiences in various settings. Forms that are beneficial in health care settings-including a satisfaction survey, a facility checklist, and sample policies and procedures-are provided in the book. Patient-Centered Care in Sports Medicine serves as an excellent guide for institutions and individual providers who desire to become more competent when working with athletes or patients from a variety of backgrounds.
