Concussion Evaluation
Concussions are a mild traumatic brain injury and may occur from a bump or blow to the head. Concussions are typically not life-threatening, but need to be treated properly to minimize lingering effects.
Athletic Trainers are trained in the recognition and evaluation of concussions. If we suspect a concussion, we are able to help facilitate a doctor's referral.
Concussion forms are located on the forms tab. There you will find the symptom check list, our referral form, as well as at-home instructions that can help guide the Dos and Don'ts for when you have a concussion.
All Athletes, band, and Cheer will have to do a Sway Baseline Assessment to be able to participate in any practice, scrimmage, performance, or contest before, during, or after school.
All athletes who are diagnosed by a physician are required to complete a 5-Day Return to Play Protocol with an athletic trainer or supervising healthcare provider before returning to their sport with no restrictions.
