4 Characteristics of a good concussion clinic

Many rehabilitation clinics and professionals have been jumping on the concussion rehab bandwagon in recent years, without necessarily offering services that truly help patients.

To help patients navigate through the various competent and *ahem* less competent concussion care providers out there, the Canadian Concussion Collaborative published a guide for patients to help them navigate rehab offerings, you can find it here: https://casem-acmse.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/CCES-PUB-CCC-4Qs-E-FINAL.pdf

This guide emphasizes use of up-to-date clinical guidelines, evidence-based practice, and access to a multi-disciplinary team of experts.

I am happy to report that Physio Avantex meets the criteria for a good concussion clinc as set out by the CCC!

We always follow the most recent and up-to-date guidelines on concussion care, as published by organizations like the Concussion in Sport Group, Parachute Canada and the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation.

We offer expert physiotherapy care under our own roof, and we are associated with a network of complementary medical and rehab professionals that we refer out to and collaborate with, to ensure that all facets of our patients’ care are addressed and optimized.
