Inhaltsangabe
Medical intervention for concussion is appropriately focused on the acute emergent status of recently injured patients. Yet the vast amount of time and effort, once neurologic emergency has been ruled out, is behavioral in nature, i.e., managing and monitoring the patient and engaging in “active rehabilitation” strategies. In short, concussion management is primarily secondary prevention to prevent repeat injury and prolonged recovery. This competency-based behavioral curriculum is the outgrowth of several projects working with schools in concussion management. Those projects were initially inspired by state-statutes that require education and training in concussion management. The competencies have been empirically validated and found to be relevant to school practices. At their most specific, those laws require training in identification and management of concussions. However, limited specific curricula exist that address details of those processes to ensure staff in schools and clinics are sufficiently prepared to function effectively. This volume intends to fill a gap in the development of effective concussion management programming in schools and clinics. All three authors have extensive experience in clinical work and research in concussion management. This third edition has been updated with recent research. Scientific peer-review of the book in Developmental Neuropsychology journal was enthusiastic. The 10 Competencies address: • Biological aspects of concussion management • Behavioral aspects of concussion • Programmatic considerations This volume intends to: • Bridge the gaps between schools, community health care and families; • Focus on behavior and not medicine; • Assume that schools are a proper focus of activity, but does not assume all schools have equal resources; • Elevate the role of the student-patient and the family in the recovery process. The material is aimed at a broad range of interested parties: • School Superintendents, Boards, and Administrators • Athletic Directors and Coaches • Teachers • Licensed and Ancillary Health Care Providers • Parents and Students
