Concussion Training Bill Becomes Law

A bill that requires all Rhode Island school nurses to undergo training for concussions is now law.  The measure passed by the legislature this year expands current law requiring coaches and volunteers to undergo concussion training to include school nurses.  The change is designed to help high school athletes who may suffer a head injury during a game, but did not show signs of a concussion until later.
