Caldwell Academy’s sports medicine program provides quality sports preventative and injury care for its students. This encompasses evaluation and diagnosis, injury prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, acute care, and athlete education. Our athletic trainer works closely with area physicians and team doctors to provide immediate and sustained care for students while also striving to establish trusting relationships with the athletes, coaching staff, parents, and the medical community.

The athletic trainer provides evaluations to determine a safe participation status, preventative bracing and taping, and rehabilitative/reconditioning therapy to any athlete with an injury. Athletes who are unable to participate in practice or contests are monitored while they complete their rehabilitation program. Athletic trainers work with the athlete's treating physician to carry out any rehabilitative therapy prescribed and are prepared to deal with those injuries that occur throughout each practice or contest.
As Caldwell's head certified athletic trainer, Cari provides preventative care, injury and illness evaluations, as well as treatment and rehabilitation of emergent, acute, and chronic medical conditions. She provides awareness, education, and intervention to minimize the risk of injury and illness of student-athletes. Cari uses her clinical knowledge to complete both on-the-field and off-the-field evaluations to determine a plan of care or medical referral when necessary. She prepares and maintains appropriate health record documentation related to the student-athlete.
While motivated to keep athletes on the playing surface, Cari continues to expand her professional knowledge. She has an interest in personalized blood flow restriction rehabilitation and pharmacology.
Cari graduated from Northeast Guilford High School where she played volleyball. She and her husband reside in Greensboro with their infant son.
