Head Injuries: If in doubt, sit them out

If
you suspect that an athlete has a concussion, you should take the following four steps:

1. Remove the athlete from play.
2. Ensure that the athlete is evaluated by a health care professional experienced in evaluating for concussion. Do not try to judge the seriousness of the injury yourself. 3. Inform the athlete's parents or guardians about the posskible concussion and give them the CDC fact sheet for parents on concussion.
