March is Brain Injury Awareness Month

Car accidents and falls are leading causes of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), especially in teens, children, and the elderly.

According to the Brain Injury Association of America, someone in the United States sustains a brain injury every 9 seconds.

In a 2018-2019 study, the CDC reported that “unintentional motor vehicle crashes accounted for approximately 17% of all TBI-related deaths” while “unintentional falls accounted for 29.9% of all TBI-related deaths.”

Brain injury survivors may experience a range of physical, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms that can completely change their lives, and not for the better.

Always prioritize safety and protect yourself and others with these slip and fall prevention + accident prevention tips.
