Concussion Management Teams

Concussion Management Teams are specialized groups designated to oversee the assessment and care of athletes who may have suffered a concussion. They consist of medical professionals, trainers, coaches, and sometimes educators, all working together to ensure the athlete's health and safety. Their responsibilities include evaluating the severity of the concussion, implementing recovery protocols, and ensuring that athletes are fully cleared to return to play. This collaborative approach helps to minimize risks and supports the athlete’s long-term well-being, emphasizing safety while maintaining the integrity of sports participation.
