Ontario! Check out the updated Rowan's Law Packages. We are proud that our always up-to-date #LivingGuideline for Pediatric Concussion helped inform this important work. Let's keep working together to ensure everyone has access to up-to-date and evidence-based resources.
Replying to @parachutecanada
@parachutecanada led the creation of these important resources, comissioned by Ontario, and this year has been revising them to align with the 2nd edition of the Canadian Guideline on Concussion in Sport. #RowansLawDay #ConcussionEd

🏒⚽🤕Concussions are common among kids and teens. Most recover quickly, but for 1 in 3, symptoms can last months or years. Thanks to Dr. Zemek's research, doctors now have a clinical tool that helps families navigate concussion recovery. cihr-irsc.gc.ca/e/54475.html… @CHEO

Myth: If a child looks fine after a fall, there’s nothing to worry about. Fact: Symptoms of a concussion can show up hours or days later. Stay alert. parachute.ca/safekidsweek #SKW2025 #KidsAndConcussions
