This month, learn about brain injury

March 6, 2009 by JoLynne Lyon

March is Brain Injury Awareness Month, so this is a good time to revisit the supports available to people who have sustained traumatic brain injuries.  A featured story by contributors Skylor Pond and Erica Mills shows what the CPD is doing to inform individuals, their families and professionals about TBI. 

For more information on traumatic brain injury, visit the websites of the Brain Injury Association of Utah and the Brain Injury Association of America.

    The tragic death of actress Natasha Richardson this week in a ski accident highlights how people may not recognize the signs of a brain injury until it is too late. They expect the symptoms will resolve themselves.

    It was sad for me to hear that the paramedics were not able to see her. Someone apparently turned them away. That’s really too bad!
