Further updates to Whiplash Documentation

The NSW Motor Accidents Authority has made further updates on its website for resources to assist people managing patients whom have had a whiplash injury. Although much of the focus is on treating professionals these resources are also useful for RTW Coordinators or Safety Professionals working within employers whom have employees who have motor vehicle accidents.

The links to 3 key resources are below:

1. Acute whiplash page for health professionals

2. Whiplash assessment tools. This page has links to online versions of the Guideline assessment tools (VAS, NDI etc), and the recommended actions from the Guidelines

3. Neck exercise examples. The exercises are available on a webpage, with the YouTube clips embedded.
