Brain Injury Speaker - Paul Bosworth
So far, Paul has achieved quite a lot in 10 years of advocacy. Paul is on a Mission. His goal is to gain awareness for the "leading cause of death and disability in the United States" (NASHIA). Gaining awareness will increase quality of care over time. We are learning that brain Injury is often overlooked in assessment environments.
He tells his story of cobbling his own recovery on his own with the help of a few friends. His Talks have been called Inspiring, Determined and AMAZE-ing. Every Talk has a fellow very quiet traveller wanting to his ear to hear them.
Every year, Paul visits Washington, DC to advocate and learn what the latest and greatest modality is gaining life post brain trauma.
His work with Brain Injury Advisory Council where he joined in 2008 with Advisors from US States as an adjunct to the Brain Injury Association of America is highly valued as it feeds his Mission to help the next fellow traveller along their path.
Paul has shared his story with fine learned folks at:
Brain Injury Services - Springfield, VA
