Every year, I respond to several first aid calls with likely concussions. And every year, I hear about or witness people returning to #school, #sport or work prematurely.
Here is a handy guide to proper return-to-school and return-to-sport protocols: https://schoolfirstconcussion.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/22-RTS-RTPA-Stages-EN.pdf
#Concussion awareness needs to be about more than just recognizing signs and symptoms at onset. It need every teacher, #coach, doctor and parent to understand and follow protocols for returning to activity.
