Resources for Families, Schools and Sports Organizations
Are you a healthcare provider looking to share important information with families, schools and coaches that are based on the guideline? Perhaps you’re a family member, teacher or coach that is interested in information that is relevant to you from this guideline. We developed two different types of resources including a new family version of the clinical guideline and three handouts for parents, teachers, and coaches. In the Fall of 2020 we will be releasing a new version for adolescents to learn more about concussion.
Family Version / Version Famille
This pdf document is in a Q & A format and is designed for use by parents/caregivers offering a series of recommendations to help children and adolescents with concussion recover safely and return to their everyday life.

La Version Famille des lignes directrices pour le diagnostic et la gestion des commotions cérébrales en pédiatrie sert de guide aux membres de la famille pour aider l’enfant/l’adolescent à gérer sa commotion cérébrale.
RESOURCES FOR YOUTH
In collaboration with youth who have experienced concussion, we have developed two resources that share information about what to do if you have a concussion and how to approaching returning to school after concussion. These two resources have been designed for use by youth and offer a series of recommendations to help children and adolescents with concussion recover safely and return to school and other activities that they enjoy.
I Have a concussion: Where do I start?
I have a concussion: How do I get back to school?
Printable Handouts
Printable handouts have been developed for Parents, Teachers, and Coaches. These handouts share a summary of the Living Guideline and include information about concussion and clear steps for returning to activities, sport, and school. The handouts also include a list of additional online resources.
