Georgetown College Emergency Action Plan
Introduction
Emergency situations may arise anytime during athletic events. Expedient action must be taken in order to
provide the best possible care to the sport participant in emergency and/or life-threatening conditions. The
development and implementation of an emergency plan will help ensure that the best care will be provided.

As emergencies may occur at any time during an activity, the Sports Medicine Department and Athletic staff
must be prepared. Athletic organizations have a duty to develop an emergency plan that may be
implemented immediately when necessary and to provide appropriate standards of emergency care to all
participants. As athletic injuries occur at any time and during any activity, the Sports Medicine team must be
prepared. This preparation involves formulation of an emergency plan, proper coverage of events,
maintenance of appropriate medical emergency equipment and supplies, utilization of appropriate medical
emergency personnel, and continuing education in the area of emergency medicine and planning. Ideally,
through careful pre-participation physical screenings, adequate medical coverage, safe practice and training
techniques, and other safety avenues, some potential emergencies may be averted. However, accidents and
injuries are inherent with sports participation, and proper preparation on the part of the Sports Medicine
team should enable each emergency to be managed appropriately.

Emergency Action Plan Personnel
       During typical athletic practice or competition, the first responder is typically a member of the Sports
Medicine staff, most commonly a Certified Athletic Trainer. A team physician may not always be present at
every organized practice or competition. The type and degree of sports medicine coverage for an athletic
event may vary widely based on such factors as the sport or activity, the setting, the type of training or
competition. The first responder in some situations may be a coach or other institutional personnel.

Roles of the First Responders
        The development of an emergency action plan cannot be complete without the formation of an
emergency team. The emergency team may consist of a number of healthcare providers including physicians,
emergency medical technicians, certified athletic trainers, student workers, coaches/administrators,
managers, campus security (if present), and possibly bystanders. Roles of these individuals within the
emergency team may vary depending on various factors such as the number of members of the team, the
athletic venue itself, or the preference of the Senior Athletic Trainer. There are four basic roles within the
emergency medical team.

   1. The first and most important role is establishing safety of the scene and immediate care of the athlete.
      The most qualified individual on the scene should provide acute care (immediate care). Individuals
      with lower credentials should yield to those with more advanced training.
   2. EMS activation may be necessary in situations where emergency transportation is not already present
      at the sporting event. This should be done as soon as the situation is deemed and emergency or life-
      threatening event. Time is the most critical factor under emergency conditions. Activating the EMS
      system may be done by anyone on the team. However, the person chosen for this duty should be
      someone who is calm under pressure and who communicates well over the telephone. This person
      should also be familiar with the location and address of the sporting event.
   3. Equipment retrieval may be done by anyone on the emergency team who is familiar with the types and
      locations of the specific equipment needed. Student workers, managers, and coaches are good choices
      for this role.
   4. Directing EMS to the scene is the fourth role. One member of the team should be responsible for
      meeting emergency medical personnel as they arrive at the site of the emergency. Depending on the
Georgetown College Emergency Action Plan
ease of access, this person should have keys to any locked gates or doors that may slow the arrival of
       the medical personnel. A student worker, manager, coach, or campus security may be appropriate for
       this role.

Activating the EMS System
Making the Call:

   •   Call 911
   •   Notify Campus Safety following call with EMS at 502-863-8111
Providing Information

   •   Name, address, telephone number of caller in case disconnected
   •   Nature of emergency, whether medical or non-medical
   •   Number of injured
   •   Condition of injured (breathing/not breathing, pulse/no pulse, bleeding, conscious/unconscious
   •   First aid treatment initiated by first responder (blood control, rescue breathing, CPR, etc.)
   •   Specific directions to location of injured (see individual location EAP)
   •   Other information requested by dispatcher

Emergency Communication
        Communication is key to quick emergency response. Athletic trainers and emergency personnel must
work together to provide the best emergency response capability and should have contact information such as
telephone trees established as part of pre-planning for emergency situations. Communication prior to the
event is a good way to establish boundaries and to build rapport between both groups of professionals. If
emergency medical transportation is not available on-site during a particular sporting event, then direct
communication with the emergency medical system at the time of the injury or illness is necessary.
        Access to a working telephone or other telecommunication device, whether fixed or mobile, should be
assured. The communications system should be checked prior to each practice or competition to ensure
proper working order. A back-up communication plan should be in effect, should there be a failure of the
primary communication system. The most common method of communication is a public telephone.
However, a cellular phone is preferred if available. At any athletic venue, whether home or away, it is
important to know the location of a workable telephone. Pre-arranged access to the phone should be
established if not easily accessible.

Emergency Equipment
        All necessary emergency equipment should be at the site and quickly accessible. Personnel should be
familiar with the function and operation of each type of emergency equipment. Equipment should be in good
operating condition, and personnel must be trained in advance to use it properly. Emergency equipment
available should be appropriate for the level of training for the emergency medical providers. Creating an
equipment inspection logbook for continued inspection is strongly recommended. It is recommended that a
few members of the emergency team be trained and responsible for the care of the equipment.

        It is important to know the proper way to care for and store the equipment as well. Equipment should
be stored in a clean and environmentally controlled area. It should be readily available when emergency
situations arise.
Georgetown College Emergency Action Plan
Medical Emergency Transportation
        An emphasis should be placed on having an ambulance on-site at high-risk sporting events when
possible. EMS response time is additionally factored in when determining on-site ambulance coverage. The
athletic department coordinates on-site ambulances for competition in football. Ambulances may be
coordinated on-site for other special events/competitions. Consideration is given to the capabilities of
transportation service available (i.e. basic life support and advanced life support) and the equipment and level
of trained personnel on board the ambulance. In the event that an ambulance is on site, there should be a
designated location with rapid access to the site and cleared route for entering/exiting the venue.

        In the medical emergency evaluation, the primary survey assists the emergency care provider in
identifying emergencies requiring critical intervention and in determining transport decisions. In an
emergency situation, the injured should be transported by ambulance, where the necessary staff and
equipment is available to deliver appropriate medical care. Emergency care providers should refrain from
transporting unstable victims in inappropriate vehicles. Care must be taken to ensure that the activity areas
are supervised should the emergency care provider leave the site in transporting the injured. Any emergency
situations where there is impairment in level of consciousness (LOC), airway, breathing, or circulation (ABC) or
there is neurovascular compromise should be considered a “load and go” situation and emphasis placed on
rapid evaluation, treatment, and transportation. In order to provide the best possible care for Georgetown
College Athletics, all athletes should be transported to either Georgetown Community Hospital or University
of Kentucky Hospital.

Non-Medical Emergencies
       For the following non-medical emergencies: fires, bomb threats, violent/criminal behavior, active
shooter, refer to the institution emergency action plan for the event.

Post Emergency Action Plan Procedures
Documentation
Documentation must be done by Certified Athletic Trainer (or other provider) and coach immediately following
activation of the EAP. Both an injury report and accident report form must be filled out.

Debriefing
A team comprising of the Senior Athletic Trainer and any Certified Athletic Trainer present and involved in the incident,
Athletic Administration, coaches, any other member of Georgetown College as warranted must discuss the event within
a timely manner. This team must evaluate the effectiveness of the EAP and conduct a staff debriefing. A specific timeline
for changes to EAP should be made for promptness.

Conclusion
The importance of being properly prepared when athletic emergencies arise cannot be stressed enough. An athlete’s
survival may hinge on the training and preparation of healthcare providers. It is prudent to invest athletic department
“ownership” in the emergency action plan by involving the athletic administration and sport coaches as well as sports
medicine personnel. The emergency action plan should be reviewed at least once a year with all athletic personnel and
local emergency response teams. Through development and implementation of the emergency plan, Georgetown
College helps ensure that the athlete will have the best care provided when an emergency situation does arise.
Georgetown College Emergency Action Plan
Staff Education
    1. Each season, every coach will receive a copy of the Emergency Action Plan (EAP).
           a. Each coach will provide their signature to confirm they have read the documents and asked any
                potential questions.
                    i. A copy of this documentation is attached at the end of this document.
    2. A copy of the relevant EAP will be in each team’s emergency binder.
    3. A copy of the EAP will be posted on the wall in the athletic training room, in addition to at each on campus
       athletic venue.

Chain of Command
The Sports Medicine Team should always act as primary care-givers at the site of the injury or accident (when on-site)
and would manage the situation according to the following rank:
    1. Team Physician

    2. Head Athletic Trainer/Senior Athletic Trainer

    3. Sports Medicine/Orthopedic Fellow

    4. Assistant Athletic Trainer

    5. Athletic Training Fellow

    6. Resident Physician

    7. Athletic Training Student

    8. Head Coach or Athletic Department Administrator

    9. Assistant Coach

In the event that a certified athletic trainer is not on-site at the time of injury, the following chain of command should be
used:

    1. Team Physician

    2. Sports Medicine/Orthopedic Fellow

    3. Resident Physician

    4. Head Coach or Athletic Department Administrator

    5. Assistant Coach

Procedures for the Emergency Care of and Injured Athlete
Serious Injury
A serious injury is one in which the athlete will obviously need to be hospitalized, and there is little or no time
to consult with the physician before taking actions:
       Example:

               A.   Stoppage of breathing
               B.   Severe bleeding
               C.   Obvious/serious fracture
               D.   Unconscious athlete
               E.   Possible spinal injury
               F.   Closed head injury

Fortunately, this type of situation seldom occurs, but staff must be ready for it if and when it does. The
following is the correct plan of action to be taken by the Certified Athletic Trainer in charge and carried out by
him/her and those coaches that may be asked to help.
Procedure

       1. The Certified Athletic Trainer in charge immediately attends to the injured athlete and evaluates
          the injury and performs the necessary first aid (including CPR/AED use).
       2. The Certified Athletic Trainer in charge instructs someone (preferable another Certified Athletic
          Trainer or member of coaching staff) to make the following phone calls and relay all information
          given.
              a. Call 911 with the following information
                       i. Your name and title
                      ii. Number of injured/nature of injury/care being given
                     iii. Specific location of injured athletes and how to access area
              b. Notify Georgetown College Campus Security at 502-863-1100 of EAP activation.
              c. Notify Vice President for Athletics of the situation. If Vice President for Athletics cannot be
                  reached, call either Assistant Athletic Director or Associate Athletic Director:
                       i. Vice President for Athletics- Brian Evans
ii. Associate Athletic Director- Austin Sparks
                       iii. Assistant Athletic Director- Kimberly Chandler
               d. Return to field/court to assist as directed.
       3. If there is a second Georgetown College Certified Athletic Trainer in attendance, the Certified
          Athletic Trainer in charge will travel to the hospital. If there is not, a member of the coaching staff
          will travel to the hospital. There should always be continuing coverage of event by a Georgetown
          College Certified Athletic Trainer.
       4. A member of the coaching staff should notify parents of events. A member of the Sports Medicine
          staff will update the parent when additional information is known.
