Initial Response (Teachers, Coaches, Trainers, Officials, Students)

Following a significant impact to the head, face, neck, or body, that is either observed or reported, and where the individual (for example, teacher/coach) responsible for that student suspects a concussion the following immediate actions must be taken:

• Student stops participation and is prohibited from physical activity;
• Initiate the school board’s/school’s Emergency First Aid Response (for example, basic principles of first aid).
