Coaches in the state of Colorado must now complete online courses on brain injuries in order to be aware of causes and symptoms so that they will be aware if one of their athletes received a concussion in a game.
The online course also discusses steps to recovery and although the classes are informative, clinical descriptions are much different than actually identifying a brain injury in a student athlete.
Each brain is different so symptoms are different for everyone, but emotional and behavioral changes can be seen in many people when a concussion or brain injury is suffered.
If you or a loved one has been injured after a brain injury, contact the Denver concussion lawyers of Hull & Zimmerman, P.C., by calling (303) 423-1770.
