Managing concussion

In recent years, sporting teams and organizations have become increasingly aware of their ethical and legal responsibilities to protect athletes through the appropriate management of post-concussion symptoms and return to play decisions. 

The accurate assessment of concussion presents a number of practical challenges for the coaching staff and sports medicine practitioners working with amateur or professional teams.

ASPN sport psychologists have specific training and expertise in sport neuropsychology, an emerging discipline concerned with the management of concussion in sports. They can assist with the development of a comprehensive assessment and management plan for teams, using computer-based programs to document the effects of concussion and their resolution.
