Understanding Concussion

Connectivity CEO Melinda Fitzgerald was joined by Connectivity Members Dr Gill Cowen and Alec Ring to present to the parents of Aquinas College on the hot topic of concussion.

Outlining the current research, diagnosis, treatment and consequences of concussion; the team was also joined by past student Tom Bergin, who shared his concussion story and experience of living with a traumatic brain injury.
