CREATING NEW PERSPECTIVES TO PROMOTE HEALTHY CHOICES

Build Awareness About Concussions

concussion safetyWhy?
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can happen to anyone. Building awareness is the first step toward concussion prevention and recovery. 

The CDC reports that community programs that increase bicycle helmet use can reduce the incidence of head injury among bicycle riders, thereby reducing the number of riders who are killed or disabled.

 

What is a Concussion?
A concussion is a brain injury. A  bump or blow to the head can cause concussions. Even a “ding,” “getting your bell rung, “or what seems to be a mild bump or blow to the head can be severe. 

 

Educate About the Impact of a Concussion
You can’t see a concussion, but you can have someone experience the effects of a trauma safely with the use of the Fatal Vision® Concussion Goggles. The goggles and designed activities create hands-on awareness specifically constructed to simulate the potentially debilitating effects of a TBI.

Many customers use these goggles to deliver programs about concussions, helmet use, and the importance of following prescribed recovery protocols.

 

Modeled Impairments
Participants, when performing simple activities while wearing the goggles, will experience simulated TBI symptoms such as:

  • Dizziness
  • Visual disconnect
  • Disorientation
  • Hesitation
  • Apprehension
  • Confusion
  • Lack of confidence
