Which document protects the Personal Trainer against claims of negligence?
  1. Client’s personal file
  2. Incident Report Form
  3. Informed Consent Form
  4. Waiver of Liability
Explanation
Answer: D - While the client’s personal file contains a variety of important information about medical history and previous training sessions, its primary purpose is to help the Personal Trainer plan training sessions appropriate for the client’s physical abilities. The Incident Report Form exists to gather information regarding an incident that occurred during training. The primary purpose of the Informed Consent document is to protect the trainer by indicating that the client voluntarily put themselves at risk of certain injuries, but as such, it does not cover neglect.
