Concussion Protocol

-  The team Athletic Therapist will refer the athlete to Laura Redgate, for return to play protocol.

Laura will put the athlete through the concussion return to play protocol, at Max Bell, up to the stage where the athlete has completed a non contact practice. At that point the athlete is required to obtain a clearance letter from a Sport Medicine Doctor prior to contact practice.

*If an athlete has been cleared by their surgeon, doctor, sport medicine doctor, or other healthcare provider and the athlete is presenting with signs and symptoms that are not consistent with safe return to play, the Athletic Therapist has the responsibility and the right to remove the athlete from play. The Athletic Therapist will do so after a comprehensive assessment and will treat and/or refer for further assessment and treatment.
