Mild Traumatic Brain Injury can happen to anyone, anytime; in cars, sports or workplace accidents, falls or through physical assault, including domestic violence and shaken-baby syndrome. The National Center for Injury Prevention and Control estimates that 1.4 million Americans sustain a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) each year, and that at least 5.3 million Americans currently have long-term or lifelong need for help to perform activities of daily living as a result of a TBI. Brainlash provides the tools and facts to make the recovery process more intelligible - and to support the wide range of people affected by MTBI. For patients, family members, Physicians and other health care providers, Attorneys, health insurance companies, employers and others, it covers options and services, health and vocational issues, medicolegal topics, psychological and emotional implications, and more!
