According to some people a brain injury isn’t an event
The Brain Injury Association of America doesn’t consider a brain injury to be an event or an outcome. Instead, they say that it’s basically a symptom of a disease that isn’t well known and that’s very hard to diagnose. They say that the results of this can leave the victims – and their families – with challenges for the rest of their lives.
There are many groups working to increase awareness of the seriousness of brain injuries. Many are advocating for more investment in care policies and research.
