Traumatic Brain Injury, also known as “TBI” is not as rare as one would think.
Take for instance this staggering statistic: A total of 41,059 people lost their lives in motor vehicle crashes in 2007. Another 2.5 million people were injured (NHTSA.com).
In another statistic, The Center for Disease Control reports that about 1.7 million traumatic brain injuries occur each year, and of that number, about 17 percent were caused by motor vehicle accidents.
In support of raising public awareness to TBI, Hemisyncforyou.com stumbled across an assisted care community in nearby Tacoma, Washington, Cascade Park Communities. The community’s focus on memory care, assisted living, and adult day health has helped numerous families of the Puget Sound area.
