Clinical education sites at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Concordia University have access to limited supplies of various over-the-counter (OTC) medications. OTC drugs should not be given out without the approval of the supervising preceptor or full-time medical staff member.
Prescription medications may only be prescribed by licensed physicians. Students affiliated with the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Athletic Training Program (UNL ATP) will not have access to prescription medication.
In the rare case an Athletic Training Student (ATS) is requested by the supervising preceptor or patient to hold prescription medication during activity, the medication container should be clearly marked with the name of patient and name of the drug. Any medication that is dispensed should be appropriately recorded and returned to the patient or supervising preceptor immediately following the conclusion of the activity.
