Early concussion care program 

The Early Concussion Care Program is accepting new referrals. 

This outpatient program provides concussion services to children and youth (21 years and under) within 4 weeks of injury. Our team of physicians, nurse practitioners, and allied health professionals utilize a holistic and individualized approach to supporting children and youth recovering from concussion. This program provides physical, and cognitive assessments in combination with clinical expertise in concussion to support symptom management, return-to-school recommendations, and to facilitate safe return-to-sport and leisure participation. This program is partially OHIP funded, and services with our allied health professionals are an additional fee that may be covered by additional health insurance.

Persistent concussion services

The Persistent Symptoms Concussion Clinic is accepting new referrals. Referrals will be placed on a waitlist in priority sequence.

For children and youth (18 years and under) with concussion symptoms that continue for greater than 4 weeks after injury, and who continue to have difficulty participating in school and physical activity, a referral may be made to outpatient persistent concussion services. Depending on a child or youth's needs, appointments may be with a physician, a neuropsychologist, an occupational therapist, a physiotherapist, and/or a social worker. Services provided by this clinical team are covered by OHIP.
