What a lovely surprise to run into my mentors from back in the days of cardiac autopsies at St. Paul’s Hospital, Department of Pathology and Lab Medicine! @hearthock

Concussions can cause emotional or behavioral changes, which can affect your mental health. CATT has a resource on how to manage mental health symptoms that can help: cattonline.com/wp-content/up…

In BC, the estimated healthcare costs for concussions in 2019 were $16 million for emergency department visits, $15 million for hospitalizations, and $21 million for disability. The impact on families, schools, and employers is harder to measure.

A new paper in @StatCan_eng Health Reports, "Self-reported concussions in Canada: A cross-sectional study", found about 1.6% of Canadians aged 12+ reported sustaining one or more concussions in 2019, based on 2020 Canadian Community Health Survey data.

When people think of concussion, they think of sports. But there’s another leading cause of concussion in Canada.
We partnered with NHL legend @trevor_linden to share this very important message. For more information, visit MyConcussionStory.com

In light of the tragic death of a Lebanese teenage boy who suffered an apparent #Concussion during his soccer game, it's vital to mandate Concussion training. We provided training to 48 school nurses, coaches and ED physicians on #Concussion Recognition, Diagnosis and Treatment
In all my years of travelling, never have I experienced an Air Canada attendant so kind, caring, attentive and engaging. Thank you “Isabel” AC849. You made the journey home with long delays so much better! @AirCanada

We are saddened to hear about the passing of Gino Odjick. Gino was a vocal advocate for #concussion education and post-concussion syndrome. He supported CATT when it first launched in 2014. He will be missed. @canucks #NHL
