New York State Concussion Management and Awareness Act:

The Commissioner of Education worked with the Commissioner of Health to produce guidelines for school districts to follow in protecting the health and well being of concussed students.  

The law specifies that coaches, athletic trainers, physical education teachers and school nurses receive state-approved biennial education regarding concussion awareness and management. The district thinks it is important that parents have access to these same videos, as well as to additional evidence-based research regarding concussion management. Below are three solid resources to obtain additional information about the Concussion Management and Awareness Act and to obtain concussion literature.
