<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><P> Concussions pose a serious and complex issue for schools - from determining if a student may have suffered a concussion during a school activity to ensuring that students diagnosed with this condition can safely and effectively resume study, recreation, and sports. This is first comprehensive text for front-line school staff, including psychologists, counselors, and nurses, to focus on managing concussions in students, from prevention to post-concussion return to school. With a focus that addresses concussions in and beyond the sports field, the book describes how to create and lead a concussion management team in school and provides clear, non-technical information on how concussions can affect learning, mental health, and social-emotional functioning; tools for school-based concussion assessment; and guidelines for creating accommodation plans in collaboration with the family, community, and school team.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The first book to focus on managing concussions from prevention to post-concussion return to school</b> </p> <p>Concussions pose a serious and complex issue for schools--from determining if a student may have suffered a concussion during a school activity to ensuring that students diagnosed with this condition can safely and effectively resume study, recreation, and sports.
