Leicester University Sport and Exercise Medicine Society

Picture
Welcome to LUSEMS
Our aims are:
  • To promote physical activity within the medical school and for patients.
  • To promote the speciality of Sports and Exercise Medicine (SEM).
  • To increase the amount of Sports Medicine taught in the medical school.
  • To increase the amount of Social Prescribing teaching at the medical school. 

Our plans for this year
  • LUSEMS is hoping to provide another 'Wellness Week' like the one we had in 2019. This will be a mixture of free exercise classes, physical exercise challenges/ competitions either between medical sports societies or friendship group plus charity events- we will have posters displayed around the medical school detailing this event soon so keep an eye out!
  • Lectures and workshops within the medical school on a range of topics including common sports injury teaching, diet and exercise, impact of exercise on mental/general health and social prescribing. LUSEMS will be providing lectures delivered by SEM healthcare professionals too. We will also be branching out into an area LUSEMS hasn't explored yet- the problems with sport! Topics may include brain injuries from sports and their long-term impacts, doping and obsessive exercise. 
  • Establish good relationships with SEM healthcare professionals to allow shadowing experiences for those interested in a SEM career. 
  • Promotion and transport to and from SEM conferences. 
  • Improvement of our social media platform to increase awareness of SEM- topics will include sports injury summaries, benefits of exercise and book recommendations. If you're interested please give us a follow on our instagram leicestersportsmedicine.

Last years achievements
  • Medical Student Guide to Physical Activity- An educational resource which provides students with knowledge and skills to promote physical activity in patients. 
  • Physical Activity Raffle- A way in which we promoted physical activity in the medical student population. Participants logged their workouts which gained them tickets for the raffle. We received a fantastic 190 entries!
  • Sports Injuries Series- An ongoing series of common sporting conditions with details on their assessment and management. 
  • We also held meetings with the University gym to try and gain better membership options for Phase 2 Medical Students.​​
