UCLA HEALTH and the how they partner with the la lakers
​
In 2017, UCLA Health partnered with the Los Angeles Lakers on a mission that had two directions: to better the reach of community enrichment efforts with youth and adults, and to better understand sports anatomy as professional athletes push past the normal limits of the human body.
What once began as a simple mission has now excelled past the expectations of both UCLA Health and the Los Angeles Lakers.
​
Health Education and Community Enrichment
UCLA Health supports the community outreach efforts of the LA Lakers by teaching children and their parents the importance of health education.
By bringing proper health education to the young athletes and leaders of the community, UCLA Health has provided impactful lessons that will be remembered for a lifetime. The partnership between UCLA Health and the LA Lakers is all about teaching the next generation how important health truly is.
Researching the Anatomy of the LA Lakers
Doctors and specialists of UCLA Health have been able to understand much more about the human body by examining the anatomy of players on the Lakers team. They study injuries and enact injury prevention steps into the players' practice and playing routines to make strides in the field of sports health and science.
The UCLA Health Training Center, located just south of Los Angeles, California, offers advanced amenities such as monitoring areas and recovery centers which allow specialists of UCLA Health to monitor what these professional athletes put their bodies through every day.
