Jacquie has over 20 years of experience working with individuals from a recreational level to Olympic athletes. During more than fifteen years of clinical and on-field experience at the University of Toronto with the concussion clinic and research staff, Jacquie treated a high volume of complex concussion patients, with a focus on return to play using a continuum of care that included preseason questionnaires, acute on-field assessment of injured athletes, management of acute and chronic symptoms, and return to play exercise progressions. As well, she completed her vestibular competency training at Emory University. She has been a clinical instructor at the University of Toronto, Department of Physical Therapy, and past chair of the Sport Physiotherapy Canada (SPC), Ontario. Her doctoral research focused on the development of the Concussion Recovery Questionnaire (CORE-Q), a functional status outcome measure for individuals with persistent post-concussion symptoms. Her work seeks to measure the impact of concussion in order to inform clinical management based on patient priorities. She is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario investigatinng the impact of concussion on children.
