Early Head Knock Treatment

By APM | Posted: Tuesday July 15, 2025

APM has launched the Early Support Concussion Service — designed to bridge the gap between injury and recovery following a head knock.

This service is especially relevant for coaches, players, and parents, offering:

Online consultation with an experienced allied health professional.
Tailored advice and early intervention strategies to support faster, more confident recovery.
Guidance on safe return to sport, helping ensure players resume activity at the right time.
Support to navigate the right care pathway, including referrals to other services if needed.
Easy access — no referral required.

This nationwide service is fully funded for anyone in Aotearoa who has experienced a head knock within the past three months.

Early support leads to better outcomes — getting the right help early can make all the difference.
