Concussion in Schools

A concussion is a temporary brain injury caused by a blow or bump to the head. Babies, young children, and teenagers are more susceptible to concussions than adults due to their still-developing brains, and symptoms may not become apparent until later in life. It is crucial for those working with children in sports and educational settings to be aware of how to identify concussion symptoms and risks. This online Concussion in Schools training course will educate your staff on understanding concussions, recognising their signs and symptoms, managing them both immediately and over time, identifying 'red flags' that require medical attention, and implementing strategies to minimize risks following a concussion.
