SPORTS CONCUSSIONS

Concussions are a very serious condition and unfortunately, one that occurs in the hockey world with more frequency than we would like. While PYHA will be taking steps on training our coaches how to recognize the possibility of a head injury, it is also up to you as the parent to make the best choice for your child.  

Please take the time to read these articles so you, as a parent, can make the best decision.  Baseline testing (which must be done BEFORE an injury occurs) is available in the event that your child does suffer a concussion, your doctors will have a "go to" point to assure your child is free from additional risk. Standardized baseline testing is available through "Texas IMPACT". This can be done on-line in less than 30 minutes for a fee of $10.00.  For a more detailed baseline test, RSM Psychology located in Lawrenceville at 3131 Princeton Pike, Bldg 5, Suite 110
Lawrenceville, NJ 08648 - 609-895-1070 to make an appointment.


PYHA is only offering suggestions and is in no way, assuming responsibility for the effectiveness of these baseline tests. This is a parental decision, so please take the time to do some homework and make the best choice for your child.
