Traumatic SCI commonly results from a sudden, traumatic impact on the spine that fractures or dislocates vertebrae. It is a devastating irreversible life changing neurological condition with substantial socioeconomic implications for patients and their loved ones. The outcome of SCI depends of course on the severity and location of the lesion and may include partial or complete loss of sensory and/or motor function below the level of injury. But, no matter if the SCI is complete or imcomplete - life will change. We understand that from day one, a spinal cord injury victim will require accommodation, adaptation and face recurring annual costs which can be an extremely large economic burden - for anyone to handle. This is where we often help - from having our OT's help with all discharge needs, ensuring that your needs and requirements from rehab to mobility devices are funded, and making sure that you are compensated if your condition was caused by the fault of someone else.

Traumatic spinal cord Injuries often have devastating and permanent life-changing neurological consequences - which often reduces an individual enjoying normal health and activity to a state of complete immobility and dependence upon others. People with SCI’s often suffer traumatic and unexpected loss, with permanent consequences that affect every aspect of their lives. In our practice, we are often asked what type of compensation that a spinal cord injury victim could expect. Although it’s difficult to estimate with accuracy, we are able to approximate to a fairly significant degree what a spinal cord injury victim could expect to recover - depending on such factors as where the lesion is located, the age of the victim, whether the victim was employed or not, and the expected life care projections.

Following an SCI, many people, understandably, become less active. Weight gain, loss of muscle tone and increased risk of cardiovascular disease can result. Inactivity can also lead to less strength and endurance and will increase your risk of other medical problems. Research suggests that for people with spinal cord injury, exercise can absolutely prevent secondary conditions, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, pressure sores, urinary tract infections, and respiratory disease. In addition, exercise helps prevent deconditioning (getting out of shape) and obesity, and it provides mental health benefits. You can prevent all of these problems and benefit both your body and mind by developing a regular exercise program. Studies have indicated that spinal cord injured persons who exercise not only increase strength, coordination and endurance but also decrease depression, mental inactivity and social isolation.

For a spinal cord injury victim, inpatient rehabilitation is a time of major adjustment and transition in terms of that person's emotions, body, and lifestyle. Rehabilitation will likely last several months, but there will be a time to go home...and while the return home is usually eagerly anticipated for most through hospitalization and rehabilitation, as the date nears many people with spinal cord injuries actually begin to suffer from increased anxiety: Discharge means facing all the unknowns awaiting them in the "real world." Remember - once a spinal cord injury victim returns home and is no longer within the "safe walls" of the rehab unit, the real adjustment to spinal cord injury begins - and it's extremely important to plan ahead as much as possible. We recently teamed up with friend and collegue Jean-Charles Langlois, a certified life care planner from Laval, Quebec whom we worked with in the past to write extensively about a few important issues to think of while planning to going home after a spinal cord injury.

✅ Generally speaking, the higher up the spinal cord injury occurs, the more severe it will be. ✅The cervical portion of your spine includes the top portion of the spinal cord, comprising seven vertebrae (C-1 to C-7) in the neck. A cervical spinal cord injury occurs when the spinal cord in the C1 to C8 vertebral levels is injured. Being closer to the brain and affecting a larger portion of the body, Cervical spinal cord injuries are the most severe types of spinal cord injuries and often results in complete and permanent sensory loss and may result in quadriplegia. ✅ The economic burden of a spinal cord injury, throughout a quadriplegic’s lifetime, depending on the victim’s age and the location of injury on the spinal cord, can range anywhere from five to $15 million. ✅ Tetraplegia victims will require such direct costs as prescription drugs, non-prescription items, adaptive equipment, home modifications, vehicle modifications, long-term institutional care, attendant care, mobility equipment etc. ✅ It is crucial that if you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury, you retain a spinal cord injury lawyer who can immediately help, along with his or her team of occupational therapists, with your discharge back home to a safe and comfortable modified environment and help reduce the economic burden by ensuring you obtain the maximum amount of insurance compensation possible. ✅ Read more about cervical spinal cord injuries by visiting our link in our bio – or by visiting us at hamiltonlawyers.com today. #hamiltonlawyers #hamont #keeprollin #wheelchair #wheelchairstyle #wheelchairlife #spinalcordinjuryawareness #wheelchairfitness #wheelchairsports #wheelchairman #spinalcordinjury #spinal #spinalcordinjuryrecovery #sciawareness #quadriplegia #paralysis #paraplegia #dtburlington #injuryattorney #burlont #sci # quad #Tetraplegia #Tetraplegic #para #hamiltonlawyer #lalande #lawyerinhamilton (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/COVdvdpJy6W/?igshid=12j5y4ehlhvbu
