Top Tips for Pitch Side First Aid with Hannah’s Health Lab

Working pitch side in football can be unpredictable, and being prepared for multiple injuries is an essential skill for sports therapists and sports physiotherapists. 

In this video, Sports Therapist, Hannah Childs from Tring Athletic shares her top tip for pitch side first aid: double gloving and placing a fresh piece of gauze between your gloves so you're ready to respond quickly and safely to more than one injury at a time. 

This practical sports medicine tip is especially valuable for newly qualified therapists, students, and clinicians working in grassroots football, amateur sport, and other pitch side environments.

While this video gives some great insights, it should be taken as educational information and is not intended as medical advice.
