Hope Haven Concussion Protocol & Code of Conduct

For Athletes and Parents/Guardians if
Hope Haven follows the policy and procedures as set by the Ontario Equestrian Concussion Guidelines. We also require a confirmation on a yearly basis, as determined by Rowan's Law, that all Hope Haven participants, parents/guardians as well as coaches and staff have reviewed the following:

1. Concussion Awareness Resources as provided by the Government of Ontario
2. Hope Haven's Concussion Code of Conduct

Hope Haven Code of Conduct

I will help prevent concussions by:
- Wearing the proper equipment for my sport and wearing it correctly (ASTM certified equestrian helmet).
- Developing my skills and strength so that I can participate to the best of my
  ability.
- Respecting the rules of my sport or activity.
- My commitment to fair play and respect for all* (respecting other athletes,
  coaches, team trainers and officials).
I will care for my health and safety by taking concussions seriously, and I
understand that:
- A concussion is a brain injury that can have both short and long-term effects.
- A blow to my head, face or neck, or a blow to the body that causes the brain to
  move around inside the skull may cause a concussion.
- I don’t need to lose consciousness to have had a concussion.
- I have a commitment to concussion recognition and reporting, including self
  reporting of possible concussion and reporting to a designated person when and
  individual suspects that another individual may have sustained a concussion.*
  (Meaning: If I think I might have a concussion I should stop participating in further
  training, practice or competition immediately, or tell an adult if I think another
  athlete has a concussion).
- Continuing to participate in further training, practice or competition with a
  possible concussion increases my risk of more severe, longer lasting symptoms,
  and increases my risk of other injuries.
I will not hide concussion symptoms. I will speak up for myself and others.
- I will not hide my symptoms. I will tell a coach, official, team trainer, parent or
  another adult I trust if I experience any symptoms of concussion.
- If someone else tells me about concussion symptoms, or I see signs they might
  have a concussion, I will tell a coach, official, team trainer, parent or another
  adult I trust so they can help.
- I understand that if I have a suspected concussion, I will be removed from sportand that I will not be able to return to training, practice or competition until I undergo a medical assessment by a medical doctor or nurse practitioner and have been medically cleared to return to training, practice or competition.
- I have a commitment to sharing any pertinent information regarding incidents of removal from sport with the athlete’s school and any other sport organization with which the athlete has registered* (Meaning: If I am diagnosed with a concussion, I understand that letting all of my other coaches and teachers know about my injury will help them support me while I recover.)
I will take the time I need to recover, because it is important for my health.
- I understand my commitment to supporting the return-to-sport process* (I will
  have to follow my sport organization’s Return-to-Sport Protocol).
- I understand I will have to be medically cleared by a medical doctor or nurse
  practitioner before returning to training, practice or competition.
- I will respect my coaches, team trainers, parents, health-care professionals, and
  medical doctors and nurse practitioners, regarding my health and safety.
By signing below, I acknowledge that:
1. I have fully reviewed and commit to the above HH Concussion Code of Conduct.
2. I have reviewed the Concussion Awareness Resources that I’m required to do yearly as determined by Rowan’s Law.
