Children and Concussion 4/4/17

According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, four to five million concussions occur each year; among teenagers, concussions are the single largest cause of emergency room visits. Ms. Ginart will review the incidence of concussions in specific sports, describe the signs of concussion in children and adolescents, discuss protocols for concussion evaluation, and recommendations for recovery. She will offer suggestions for working with youngsters, families and school staff to develop a shared plan for the child’s return to the classroom and resume participating in sports.

Professional development hours and a certificate will be awarded to all attendees.
