Leading us is Doctor Jeff Conan. Also with the mock defendant in this case is Alexander Huron. This is a mock trial we're going we're merging various bits of information, but any reference to the setting or the circumstances or questions or involve are are entirely hypothetical.
04:33
The idea behind this is really that though athletic trainers may find themselves on trial, the majority of cases where athletic trainers our plaintiff's law defendants actually settle and don't go to trial. And so what we did here was we put together this mock case, which you all have seen, I understand, And the only real aspect of this set will integrate it to the case is Alexandra's resume, which I have a copy of here and I'm gonna use that because rather than make up a fake resume, she knows her life and her career and her resume better.
08:14
Jeff Conan: I am playing the role of attorney for this webinar. Alexandra Huron: Can you please state for the record your full name? Jeff Conan: You are under oath. If at any time, during my questioning, you need a break.
12:39
We specialize in the prevention and management of sports medicine injuries, along with psychological and mental health counseling, as well as general health conditions and emergent situations. Most of the decisions we make or more so for sudden injuries, different types of treatments to give. And most of the time, in my experience, those have been very superficial.
17:48
Most of my skills that I listed are pertinent to the more so obvious interview questions that I receive whenever I am getting a new job. Do you think it's possible, Alexandria, that at the conclusion of this deposition, you might adjust your summary paragraph to add ethical decision making? Yes.
22:50
I'd say moderate knowledge in that space because I have never had this type of situation occur in my close to 10 years of experience. This is my first time experiencing any type of misconduct or sexual harassment allegation. And so then if it's not a core competency of excellence, would you not listen on your summary, or would you then still listen when you were to revise your resume the next time?
27:46
In 4 years of which included numerous clinical hours, as you described, you received approximately 8 hours of ethical decision making. And you feel comfortable that that is what helped provide you expertise in a core competency area. I feel confident that it it taught me a moderate level for what I needed to enter the workforce.
33:02
Athletic trainers have a large vocabulary of medical vocabulary. Sometimes the things that we you know, we say or certain terms we use won't always be understood by minors. We also had to discuss a fair amount of I would say patient empathy and respect.
37:45
Alexandra, are you familiar that the National Athletic Trainers Association has a code of conduct? Yes. Alexandra, do you consider sexual misconduct an entry level skill to possess with knowledge, or is it an advanced skill? It's both for the same reasons.
43:00
Alexandra, do you know who John B is? Yes. He is an athlete. With the Sunrise Harbor area within Long Creek Middle School. He's a thirteen year old. Did you ever treat him for an injury? yes. He had a proximal hamstring injury.
48:35
Athletic trainer says she did not perform CPR because parents were not wound and it was out of practice. Alexandra says she has treated proximal hamstring injuries before in minors.
53:46
The athlete was treated in an open area where there were numerous other people. He was not exposed in a way that is very, very exposing to his, like, reproductive parts or his glutes, just the musculature of the hamstring. He called his parents, but he did not get anyone to pick up the phone.
57:56
I definitely like, they they teach you in school, you know, ethical stuff and sexual harassment, but it's like a 1 hour lecture because there's just so many things to go over in our and and I told them that was 6 months. It was I mean, 1st semester for a whole year. You you think about that, and they don't really give you a lot of scenarios.
1:01:35
Lawyers have gone through my couple dozen page resume, line for line, and say, well, where's your expertise in this? Did it come from here? And they know the answers. But what they're trying to do is sort of discredit you or rattle you. And if Alexandra had a master's degree out here, that would have been the other line of questioning.
1:04:52
There's a lot of things that you'll typically answer in deposition that are very true. Unfortunately, you gotta come up with a different way to say You basically told me that I wasn't gonna pay for the knowledge that I should have had, and there therefore, I am here right now.
1:08:15
Doctor Velasquez: I was trying to confuse her intentionally. The idea was to create a conflict. Now she's admitting that she's erroneous in what she's presenting on her resume per say.
1:11:12
I wanna know the dates you took these training I wanna see evidence. Do you have something to show me in writing like a certificate? She didn't give me any information. She told me the relationship was between the physician and the parents of which she didn't talk to the parents.
1:14:21
Raymond: Would it matter if they are l a t only? That's I think that's what I was just addressing there. She should have drank the treatment. That was a whole other area questioning then that we didn't get down to was.
1:17:34
Clay Frank: The more documentation they have that shows you were formally trained in those areas, the better you are to defend yourself. Frank: It's not uncommon to leave a deposition and go back to work that day and question Am I gonna touch somebody?
1:20:27
When you answer in a solid way, and there aren't loopholes, that's when the cases are gonna lean towards getting settled because lawyers don't wanna take the trial. And then when it's settled, it's sealed, which means no one talks about he's allowed to talk about by law.
1:23:30
CNN's John Sutter says he would have liked to have had a 4 hour deposition a month. Sutter: "I recommend everyone have their own a liability insurance because those attorneys can't turn on you at a dime"
1:26:40
Alexandra Cohen: You need to know who's on your offense. Who is your center? Your I mean, I use that that use it visual, but You didn't know who you're gonna hand the ball off to, and who's gonna walk to. And that's and that requires, you know, that what you just said is having a good team.
1:30:11
And then for everyone listening, really just hopefully you're able to take home a couple of points. Honestly, not even about how to do a deposition, but how to be prepared through the things you do every day if you get to that point so that you are more comfortable, more confident sitting in that oxy.
