The Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation (ONF) has just released Standards for Post-Concussion Care: from diagnosis to the interdisciplinary concussion clinic.
The Standards focus on guiding delivery of the right care, provided at the right time by the right provider anywhere in Ontario and support improved post-concussion care across the province. The Standards provide evidence-based direction for healthcare providers and planners, and empower patients to better manage their care. The core elements of the standards are the interdisciplinary model and the pathway of care.
Please go to http://ConcussionsOntario.org to see the 15 Standards and the numerous tools and resources that accompany these. ONF will soon expand this work with education strategies and implementation with many stakeholder groups/audiences across the province.
