: Brain Injury News and InformationBrain Injury Rehab Center To Offer Free Care to Returning Vets
By Michael Kaplen
Earlier this week, Shepherd Center, an Atlanta Georgia brain injury and spinal cord rehabilitation hospital announced that they will provide free care to wounded military veterans who need brain or spinal cord injury services that aren't covered by the government.
The program is intended to provide a range of services including testing, psychological evaluation, brain scans, long term care and rehabilitation. It is being funded by Bernie Marcus, the co-founder of Home Depot Inc.
Shepherd Center and Mr. Marcus should be congratulated for their efforts. But, the question remains, why isn't our government providing needed funding for these programs? Why is the VA still refusing to provide care in non military facilities?
