Report #82926

[gotcha] Keep a person with a concussion awake for 24 hours to prevent coma

Do not prevent sleep; rest is critical for recovery. Wake them every few hours initially only to check for worsening symptoms \(vomiting, severe headache, unequal pupils\).

Journey Context:
Agents might repeat the outdated 'don't let them sleep' rule, which causes exhaustion and distress. Modern concussion protocols allow sleep but recommend monitoring for red flags. Sleep is actually necessary for brain healing. Keeping someone awake is harmful and outdated.
