Each licensed athletic trainer providing athletic training
services will create, upon a form provided by the Board, an athletic training
service plan or protocol with his directing physician. This athletic training
service plan or protocol must be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. Each

service plans or protocols, job descriptions, policy statements, or other
documents that define the responsibilities of the athletic trainer in the

with this chapter, Title 54, Chapter 39, Idaho Code, and to safeguard the
public. This plan or protocol will be made immediately available to the Board
upon request. This plan or protocol will be made immediately available to the
