Concussion Assessment and Management
from Hermon Mountain Ski Patrol Hosted by jrobert.bakker
This document offers ski patrollers and mountain staff evidence-based guidance for identifying and managing suspected concussions in a snow sports environment. It details risk factors and red flag symptoms, alongside on-slope evaluation methods using tools like the Maddocks Questions and CRT5. The guide stresses immediate removal from activity and medical referral for symptomatic individuals, and it presents a graduated return-to-ski protocol, including specific considerations for youth and adaptive skiers, all to support safe decision-making.
