Concussion management is multifaceted. Some clinicians seek to be involved from beginning to end, others practitioners only engage in a portion of the management piece based specifically around their skill set. Practicing in a rural health care community, Dr. Olson is tasked to manage the entire concussion management program between the local school and the community hospital. In this webinar, he is going to discuss the importance of the graded Return-to-Sport and Return-to-School guidelines.

Attendees will learn:
  • How to use the internationally accepted Return-to-Sport guidelines.
  • How to effectively utilize Return-to-School, or in some cases Return-to-Work guidelines.
  • The differences in working with elite vs. non-elite athletes and how various age groups are affected differently.
