Visiting Teams
The Sports Medicine Staff would like to welcome you to Southern Illinois University. We would like to make your stay in Carbondale as pleasant and convenient as possible.
If your team will not be traveling with a Certified Athletic Trainer please contact your host athletic trainer and provide written orders for any treatments that your team may need.
The primary medical facility for SIU Athletics is the SIU Student Health Center. The Student Health Center will only be open Monday thru Friday 8am to 4:30 p.m. The Emergency Department at Memorial Hospital of Carbondale will be utilized for care outside of these hours or for medical emergencies.
