With the increase in deaths and serious injuries of vulnerable road users, which we further explore in the following article; the question remains, how can we at Calio Claims help.
When you are in an accident, it may not initially be apparent that you have suffered from a brain injury. A medical professional would be able to assess your condition and advise whether you have suffered a minor head injury, a concussion with potential long-term effects, or a more serious head injury.
What is a serious head or brain injury?
This would be dependent upon an individual’s circumstances. Someone who has suffered a relatively minor head injury may be left with lifelong consequences. This could include lapses in memory or an inability to focus which can affect someone’s personal and professional life.
A serious head injury can result in life-altering changes being necessary. From requiring specialist assistance or adaptations, having 24-hour carers, or requiring aid and equipment for mobility. Everyone who sustains a brain injury will recover differently and will require different assistance.
