School professionals should be alert for signs of a concussion like appearing dazed or confused, losing consciousness, or reporting symptoms like headaches or dizziness. If signs or symptoms of a concussion are noticed, the situation should be assessed and a health care professional contacted. Signs and symptoms of a concussion can include problems with thinking, physical signs like nausea, and emotional and sleep issues.
