Head injury/facial injury alert

Should your child be referred to a Medical Practitioner or Emergency Department during school, after school, on the weekend or during school holidays following a head injury, neck or facial injury and your child is diagnosed with Concussion, it is imperative that parents inform the College Nurse. Parents must submit a Medical Clearance Certificate to the College Nurse stating when your child can return to sport or other activities at the College.

For more detailed information on Concussion, refer to the AFL brochure Management of Concussion in Australian Football under the AFL’S Community Development website: www.aflcommunityclub.com.au
