During the COVID-19 pandemic athletic trainers have taken on new roles to ensure a safe return to physical activity and public safety. Now, athletic trainers will have an opportunity to show their value and aid in New Jersey s vaccination effort.
On February 19, 2021 the State of New Jersey Department of Law and Public Safety Division of Consumer Affairs released DCA Administrative Order No. 2021-07 and DCA Waiver No. 2021-03. These documents temporarily permit licensed healthcare providers, including athletic trainers, to administer COVID-19 vaccines once appropriate training is completed.
