Working with Murray County High School staff, health care professionals from Hamilton Physician Group (HPG) and Hamilton Sports Medicine recently provided sports physicals to student-athletes from Murray County High School and Gladden Middle School.
Nancy Giammarella, nurse practitioner; Michelle Vandegriff, RN, clinical manager for HPG; and Pranay Shaw, certified athletic trainer; participated.
The physicals involved checks on vital signs, height, weight and vision, a review of athletes’ comprehensive medical questionnaires, and a musculoskeletal functional movement screening.
“We’re happy to participate and support our local athletes,” said Vandegriff. “We certainly want to keep our students as safe as possible.”
