Brain Injury Basics - Jersey City Medical Center
Join us on March 12 for a FREE educational session on brain injury basics!
Every 21 seconds, someone in the U.S. sustains a brain injury. In an instant, it can change the way we think, act, and feel. Brain injury is the leading cause of death and disability amoung our children and young adults. It's the signature wound sustained by our troops returning home from the Middle East.
Participants will learn:
- Brain injury and the rate of incidence
- Effects of brain injury on families, including the stages of grief family members experience
- Cognitive, physical, and emotional consequences
- Strategies, tips, and available resources families and caregivers can utilize
Be part of the dicussion and connect with the brain injury community in Hudson County
