Every year, I respond to several first aid calls with likely concussions. And every year, I hear about or witness people returning to , or work prematurely.

Here is a handy guide to proper return-to-school and return-to-sport protocols: schoolfirstconcussion.ca/wp-co

awareness needs to be about more than just recognizing signs and symptoms at onset. It need every teacher, , doctor and parent to understand and follow protocols for returning to activity.

1B Anthony to 10-day IL. Scary that a player could remain active for more than a month following what looks to have been a serious . Perhaps the "neurocognitive testing" procedures need some tweaking. Or possibly there are certain injuries that should require IL time regardless of test result.
