Medical/Injuries

Coaches are required to have an updated CPR/AED Certification. In the event of life threatening condition or serious injury when an ambulance has to be called, the athlete will only be taken to the closest hospital (Pamela Youde in Chai Wan). In the event of a non-urgent injury that is not considered urgent, the parent will be contacted and Adventist Hospital is the default provider - unless they communicate another preference. APAC rules require the host school to have a qualified professional on site at all times where competition is taking place. The AT is the primary provider to determine student-athlete clearance and play status following injury. Please directly communicate any significant injuries to the HKIS AT (Jared Maisel) and encourage student-athletes to arrange appointments for issues that cause participation issues.
