If a player is suspected of a concussion, then the Concussion Care and Recovery Pathway protocol should be followed. This will be discussed at the education presentation. In addition, we ask that the parent contact concussion@uwindsor.ca. One of our graduate practicum students will conduct a brief telephone interview to determine whether a post-injury assessment is warranted. If so, we will arrange with the parent for the player to come in for a post-injury assessment as soon as possible after the injury. In addition to the activities described above, a detailed interview will be conducted to gather details regarding the injury. Usually, feedback regarding the results and recommendations are provided at this same appointment.
There is no fee for this appointment.
