As a young hospital administrator I enjoy your blog in many regards, but as a former Certified Athletic Trainer I thought I'd give you and your readers some more access to pertinant information. Certified Athletic Trainers are trained in the management of concussions and are on the front lines for many young athletes. I've included a couple of pertinent links that you may want to include as well.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Greg<br /><br />http://www.nata.org/health-issues/concussion<br /><br />http://www.nata.org/NR2011Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32053362.post-82484370319593179292011-05-18T10:51:17.149-04:002011-05-18T10:51:17.149-04:00You will find Keith Primeau's Concussion iPhon...You will find Keith Primeau's Concussion iPhone App helpful, it is available on Apple's iTunes AppStore at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/concussion/id418559920?mt=8Frenchyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15423658113709833346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32053362.post-34287955396468536492011-05-18T09:25:31.513-04:002011-05-18T09:25:31.513-04:00Great info Paul and good for all to keep in mind, ...Great info Paul and good for all to keep in mind, I will be sure to get this in front of the coaches I know and also the AD of my town's HS.<br /><br />Also, I have shared this through Twitter.
