On-the-spot help to recognise the signs and symptoms of a concussion injury and arrange for the right help and safe recovery for anyone who has suffered a concussion. HeadAware is geared particularly for school sports teachers, players, coaches, and parents, but is also suitable for community and professional sporting groups to use.
The app is based on the current recommendations of the Australian Medical Association, Australian Institute of Sport, Australian College of Sport and Exercise Physicians, and Sports Medicine Australia, and aims to improve concussion injury recognition and management so that long term complications and damage can be avoided.
This simple app for mobile phones brings the right information (concussion recognition and response help) to the right people (sports teachers, coaches, players, and parents) in the right place (where the players are), and at the right time (when an an injury that could involve a concussion occurs).
As HeadAware recommends, and in addition to using this app, seek a qualified doctor’s advice before making any medical decisions.
