OrthoNebraska Sports Medicine

Before your first appointment

Patients who contact OrthoNebraska Sports Medicine in Omaha usually want to be clear on a few things first:

• the 6-step return-to-play protocol — The standard stepwise protocol athletic trainers and team physicians follow.
• a realistic concussion recovery timeline — A stage-by-stage timeline, and what should be happening at each one.
• what concussion symptoms actually look like — Every symptom cluster, including the ones that show up days later.
