The Impact of Catastrophic Injuries
Catastrophic injuries can have a profound impact on a person’s life, often resulting in long-term medical care and rehabilitation. These injuries can also cause emotional and financial stress for both the injured person and their family. The cost of medical care, lost wages, and other expenses associated with a catastrophic injury can be overwhelming, and many families struggle to make ends meet.
In addition to the physical and financial impact of catastrophic injuries, there is also the emotional toll. Injuries that result in permanent disability or disfigurement can cause emotional distress and impact a person’s quality of life.
