If you notice that your doctor has no availability online, please ring the clinic and our receptionists will do their best to find the earliest possible appointment with your doctor.

Assessment & management of sport related concussion

The Australian Institute of Sport has developed guidelines for identifying and managing sport-related concussions in children and adolescents under 19, as well as adults participating in community sports, with the aim of ensuring a safe return to play. 

The guidelines require a medical assessment by a practitioner. This assessment includes gathering a clinical history, conducting a thorough examination that covers how the injury occurred, symptoms and signs, cognitive function, neurological status, and balance.

The medical practitioner will then provide the final clearance for the athlete to return to sports activities. Given the detailed nature of this process and the need for a comprehensive evaluation, please inform our reception staff when booking an appointment for a sport-related head injury.
