The first book to focus on managing concussions from prevention to post-concussion return to school
Concussions pose a serious and complex issue for schools – from determining if a student may have suffered a concussion during a school activity to ensuring that students diagnosed with this condition can safely and effectively resume study, recreation, and sports. This is first comprehensive text for front-line school staff, including psychologists, counselors, and nurses, to focus on managing concussions in students, from prevention to post-concussion return to school. With a focus that addresses concussions in and beyond the sports field, the book describes how to create and lead a concussion management team in school and provides clear, non-technical information on how concussions can affect learning, mental health, and social-emotional functioning; tools for school-based concussion assessment; and guidelines for creating accommodation plans in collaboration with the family, community, and school team.
The text guides front-line school professionals in navigating the barriers, system issues, knowledge gaps, and complexities in recognizing and responding to student concussions. Case studies integrated throughout each chapter feature the same three students from point of injury to recovery. Reproducible forms and handouts include accommodation checklists, signs and symptoms, checklist, post-concussion care plan, progress monitoring tools, and decision trees.
