March is Brain Injury Awareness Month. Each year, millions of people in the United States sustain a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) from falls, motor vehicle traffic crashes, collisions with moving or stationary objects, and assaults. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates TBI will affect 1.7 million people, resulting in 1.365 million emergency room visits; 275,000 hospitalizations, and 52,000 deaths every year. In order to bring awareness to brain injury and the lives of those affected by it, March is designated as national Brain Injury Awareness Month.
