Following a concussion, patients with prolonged symptoms or other modifying factors can benefit
from a multidisciplinary evaluation in a specialised environment.
Such an evaluation can better document the cognitive impairment associated with the concussion and
assess the presence of associated conditions such as headaches resulting from cervical spine
problems, vestibular (balance) system or psychological conditions that results in anxiety or depressive
symptoms.
The results of such an evaluation will assist in a personalised intervention plan that will address the
individual needs.
Specialised environments should provide or have timely access to licenced health professionals with
experience and expertise in a spectrum of clinical disciplines including medicine, rehabilitation and
neuropsychology.
