Behavioral Health: Managing Stress, Anxiety and Depression Among Your Athletes
Description
Stress and mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression are at all-time highs in the United States, with youth and young adults continuing to show drastic increases in levels of distress and impacts on functioning. While an athlete may accrue mental health benefits from regular exercise, game play, social status, and belonging to a group, the same athlete is also subject to increased pressures related to performance, perfectionism, injuries, expectations, and increased schedule demands. It is essential that coaches, teams and trainers know the signs and symptoms of stress as well as when stress has escalated to a disease state that requires professional assistance.
Presenter
- Robynne Lute, PsyD, Bothwell Behavioral Health Consultant
Session 2 - 9:30-10:20 am
Panel Discussion: Unexpected Medical Issues-Diabetes, Drug Use, and Nutrition and Supplement Use
Description
Just because they’re athletes doesn’t mean they are always living a healthy lifestyle or are without special medical conditions that need monitoring. This panel discussion will focus on your athletes living with diabetes, the signs and symptoms of drug use and the hidden dangers of energy drinks and supplemental nutrition in the absence of a good nutritional diet. There will be time for your questions for our experts so bring your concerns on other health issues.
Presenters
- Kathy Woolery, RN, BSN, CDCES, Bothwell Regional Health Center, Diabetes Education/Cardiopulmonary Rehab
- Robert Frederickson, MD, physician at Bothwell Family Medicine Associates
- Angela Kammeyer, RDN, CDCES, Bothwell Regional Health Center, Diabetes Educator
Break - 10:20-10:30 am
Session 3 - 10:30-11:20 am
Making a Differential Diagnosis
DESCRIPTION
It is essential to consider all of the potential diagnostic possibilities when evaluating athletes of any age. While it’s tempting to be quick to diagnosis a meniscus tear or rotator cuff tendinitis, it’s wise to start with a wide, differential diagnosis after evaluating the symptoms, history, mechanism of injury and test results of an injured athlete no matter their age or skill level. When you hear hoof beats, a horse is usually coming, but occasionally a zebra turns up.
PRESENTER
- Douglas Kiburz, MD, Bothwell Orthopedics & Sports Medicine
Session 4 - 11:25 am-12:15 pm
