Phil Hossler, a certified athletic trainer at East Brunswick High School and member of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association Hall of Fame, recently published, “Concussion Policy Construction Guide for Schools,” his second book discussing the study of concussions, the athletes who suffer them and when they can safely return to play.

Hossler has been an athletic trainer for 37 years and says the book was developed to aid schools in designing concussion policy, to teach athletic staff about signs and symptoms of concussions and to monitor a student-athlete's recovery. The book was also designed to assist in improving communication with parents and teachers who work with recovering athletes who may need a lighter class-work load while their brains heal.
