There are many challenges that traumatic brain injury victims and
their family members face. During a 90-minute session,
"Understanding Traumatic Brain Injury," area physicians will discuss
common causes, how to recognize and treat traumatic brain injuries,
post-injury management and the recovery process -- inpatient and
outpatient rehabilitation. The event will conclude with a tour of
Memorial's Independence Square for inpatient rehabilitation,
accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation
Facilities. Physicians participating in the seminar are Drs. Devin
Amin and John Sutyak of SIU HealthCare and Dr. David Gelber of
Springfield Clinic.
The event will conclude at 7:30 p.m.
