Spine Injuries Require Long-Term Care Solutions

Unfortunately, paraplegia and other forms of paralysis typically do not “get better.” Depending on the degree of disability, the victim may need long-term care over the course of his or her life. Some of the most common types of serious spine injuries include:

  • Paraparesis: This is an injury that results in partial paralysis of victim’s lower body, typically affecting feet, legs, trunk and pelvic organs.
  • Paraplegia: This type of spine injury results in full paralysis of the victim’s lower extremities, and often their lower truck.
  • Quadriparesis: This type of spine injury results in the partial paralysis of all four of the victim’s extremities.
  • Quadriplegia: The most catastrophic spine injury, quadriplegia results in the full paralysis of all four of the victim’s extremities.

If the victim is living at home and/or is partially mobile, he or she may need special modifications in the home and ongoing assistance. Indeed, the effects of a catastrophic spinal cord injury often extend well beyond simple physical impairments. For many, adapting to their new life with physical limitations can be extremely challenging. There are many emotional, lifestyle and financial issues that must be resolved. Without proper support, recovery is much more challenging for victims and their family members. Our team is here to take care of the legal issues so that victims can focus on their health and their recovery.
