 Hello, I'm Dr. J. T. Penny and I'm the Medical Director for Mid-Michigan Health's WellSport Program. I am pleased to inform you that we will be offering a free React workshop in Bay City on Tuesday, July 31st from 3 to 8.45 p.m. at Christa McAuliffe Middle School. This hands-on workshop is designed to provide participants with an overview of significant sports-related health events, as well as an opportunity to practice the skills needed to appropriately and effectively respond to urgent and emergent athletic situations. Our workshop will provide interactive stations so that the participants will have the opportunity to learn about the management of medical emergencies, head injuries, spinal injuries, and muscle skeletal trauma. Participants will even have the option to complete the American Heart Association's HeartSaver CPR AED class immediately following the workshop. The target audience for our React workshop includes athletes, school officials and administrators, sports officials, coaches, athletic trainers, EMS personnel, athletic directors, healthcare providers, and parents. In addition to myself, the physician faculty for our workshop will include family and sports medicine specialists, Dr. Daniel Diaz, as well as orthopedic surgeon Dr. John Murphy. Both doctors, Murphy and Diaz, will be seeing patients in our new MidMichigan Health Park in Bay City, scheduled to open in September 2018.
