[December 30, 2014]  LINCOLN - The facts are clear.  Concussions are a very serious injury with potentially catastrophic effects.  Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital is offering free pre=season ImPACT concussion testing to all Logan County athletes ages 10 and up.

About the test

The ImPACT program is a research-based, scientifically proven method of concussion management.  This computerized baseline test is facilitated by an ALMH ImPACT Trained Athletic Trainer.  On test day, no physical activity is allowed prior to the test.  Expect the test to last 30 to 45 minutes.  If injured, a follow-up test is taken and the results are ready by an ImPACT trained physician or trainer to help determine when the athlete can safely return to sports.

December 22 through December 31
By appointment
