Perhaps even more disturbing is that many of these brain injuries go undiagnosed and receive no treatment.
Whether from sports or other activities, head injuries can cause a life time of health problems. Children under 18 years of age our youth are facing long term health problems.
A call to action for better monitoring, tracking, warning, prevention and treatment is long overdue.

1 in 5 Nursing Home Residents Abused
Being screamed and sworn at, or being physically or sexually
abused, are the appalling findings of a study just released by the Annals of
Internal Medicine.
The study looked at 10 New York nursing homes in their analysis. This harkens back to the embarrassing and disgraceful days of the 1970's that led to many significant and important changes. Regrettably, these improvements have been ratcheted back over the years. Many this is due to lobbying by interests that support the interests of profits over people.

Let your legislator know how you feel. If this has occurred to you or a loved one,
contact a qualified personal injury attorney.
Don't let this go unheeded.
