We have teamed up with Headway Suffolk to produce a course on brain injury and concussion. There has been a lot of news in many different sports worldwide on how head injuries are not taken seriously in sports. This course not only talks about a head injury but also where it can lead to and the lengthy recovery time required.
This course covers the effects of a head injury and looks at the damage that can occur to the brain.
Brain injury is generally misunderstood, whilst this affected but the injury is largely hidden and struggle to get help and support they deserve and need. This course not only talks about the prevention methods but also the effects, the damage that occurs and the need for early intervention.
Buying this course supports the work of Headway Suffolk.
This qualification and most of the other ProTrainings qualifications are Endorsed by TQUK to show our commitment to extra levels of compliance and quality assurance.
