What catastrophic injuries mean

Catastrophic injuries are severe, long-term injuries that usually affect the brain, spine, or major parts of the body.They often result from serious accidents, such as motor vehicle crashes, falls, or workplace incidents, and can lead to lifelong changes in mobility, thinking, and daily living.

People living with catastrophic injuries may need ongoing care with things like personal care, complex health needs, mobility, communication, and community participation.
