CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — The UPEI concussion clinic is offering assessment and care for people who have experienced recent head injury and continue to have symptoms that limit their ability to return to school, work or physical activities. The clinic is offered weekly at the UPEI Health and Wellness Centre in the W. A. Murphy Student Centre.

Individuals who continue to have physical, cognitive or emotional symptoms can receive assessment, education and a plan-of-care developed with an experienced nurse practitioner. Opportunities will be provided for interested individuals to participate in ongoing UPEI concussion research studies.

Clinical care is provided by Gail Macartney, RN(NP), who is an assistant professor in the faculty of nursing and a member of the UPEI concussion awareness program team.

Patients or caregivers can email [email protected] for more information or to request an appointment.
