Hjernerystelsesforeningen (English: Danish Concussion Association) is a Danish non-profit and non-governmental organization that strives to help people suffering from concussion and post-concussive syndrome, as well as working towards better understanding and a cure. Founded in 2013, the volunteers and staff nationwide have helped to provide support and resources to those affected.
Cooperations[edit]
In 2016 they partnered with Spillerforeningen, Håndboldspillerforeningen and Danske Elitesportsudøveres Forening to help elite athletes suffering from concussion.[3]
In 2017 they partnered with Danmarks Ishockey Union and Dansk Håndbold Forbund, in an effort to reduced the concussion injuries in Danish ice hockey and team handball.[4][5] This partnership was criticised by the players organizations for being to shallow.[6]
In the media[edit]
The organization is frequently used in the Danish media, in concussion-related topics, and has been featured in the written press extensively,[7][2][8][9] as well as in television-media.[5][10] Topics range from helping the patients,[9][8] helping next of kin,[7] affecting the politicians,[10] and engaging in concussions in sport.[5]
