about Proactive Concussion Services
Concussion Services
From Northland to Southland
Proactive Concussion Services provides early access and timely assessment for people who have sustained a mild (concussion) or moderate traumatic brain injury or have persistent symptoms that are impacting on work, life and or study.
For ACC to fund the referral the client needs to be between 10 days - 12 months post injury.
Once a referral is received, an experienced therapist meets with your patient to carry out an initial interview to gather more information about the accident and ongoing symptoms and difficulties. Your patient will be provided with information and advice about brain injury, and how the client can manage symptoms to ensure they are on the right path for recovery.
