Medical Support

As part of the athlete induction all athletes undertake a medical profile. While engaged as part of the Institute, Athletes with specific problems are referred to Professor Michael Cullen at Musgrave Hospital. Consultation, MRI scans etc are all charged directly to the Institute and a report is provided back to medical staff at the Institute. Currently the institute meets these costs from using its revenue budget although investigations are taking place to ascertain the costs of joining various medical insurance schemes are underway through UKSI.

The Sports Institute Northern Ireland will continue to develop new medical services with the aim of providing a programme of first class support to all Institute athletes and their coaches
