March is Brain Injury Awareness Month

3/8/2021

 
Every March, organizations across the globe recognize Brain Injury Awareness to shed light on the millions of individuals and their families living with the impacts of brain injury. In the United States, over 5 million children and adults are living with brain injury.

The acquired challenges that accompany a brain injury are often “invisible”. There may be greater effects on internal functioning like memory, thinking, attention, mood, and navigation through social relationships. For some, there are changes in physical functioning or appearance. 
Individuals who have sustained a brain injury may work with a team of professionals to help them along with their healing journey, including:
  • Neurologists
  • Trauma Surgeons
  • (Neuro, Clinical) Psychologists
  • Physiatrists 
  • Primary Care Physicians
  • ENTs
  • Counselors
  • Social Workers
  • Occupational Therapists
  • Speech-Language Pathologists
  • Physical Therapists
  • Support Groups
  • And many more... 

Every day, organizations around the world are working to improve brain injury education, advocacy, and access to resources. As we recognize Brain Injury Awareness Month, we encourage sharing information that will elevate the understanding of brain injury. We welcome recommendations for other resources!
