WHEATON, Ill., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following is a media advisory issued by Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital:
What: Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital is the 2007 recipient of the James Brady Award. This award is given to honor a person or organization that goes above and beyond to improve lives of persons with brain injury, thereby supporting the mission and goals of the Brain Injury Association of Illinois.
In the words of Ginny Lazzara, Chair or the Board of Directors for the Brain Injury Association of Illinois, "The vision Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital has shown in addressing the complex needs of persons with brain injury is exemplary. We are especially impressed with Marianjoy's innovative, holistic programs including the inpatient and day programs, Post Concussive Institute, vestibular and visual programs, pain management, as well as their outstanding brain injury support group."
Each year 1.4 million people in the United States sustain a traumatic brain injury and 50,000 of them die as a result. The leading causes of traumatic brain injury are falls and traffic accidents which are most likely to impact children four and under and young people 15 to 19 years old. It is estimated that more than 50% of injured veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan have some degree of brain injury.
