Though only 1.6% of children in the U.S. are considered medically complex, more than 80% of hospital days nationally are represented by children with medical complexity (CMC). With the right kind of integrated care, CMC can spend fewer days in the hospital — and are less likely to return after discharge.

Catastrophic neurological injuries leave a lasting impact on the body and mind. After sustaining a brain or spinal cord injury, some patients have trouble balancing, moving their limbs, speaking, seeing, and hearing. In addition to physical impairments, cognitive deficits in the realms of attention, memory, problem-solving, reasoning, planning, and social interaction can make it extremely difficult for brain injury survivors to navigate and enjoy their lives. In a recent blog post, we look at the role of cognitive therapy in brain injury rehabilitation and explore the five cognitive domains this type of therapy can treat.

Have you heard the phrase, “You can’t pour from an empty cup?” It means that to effectively take care of others, you have to take care of yourself. But caregivers of children with complex medical conditions, or children and youth with special healthcare needs, are often so focused on the well-being and comfort of their child, that very little time is spent thinking about their own needs. In our latest blog post, we offer tips for maintaining your physical and emotional wellbeing while caring for your child.

In the days that followed, she underwent multiple surgeries to reduce swelling and drain fluid from her brain. When she arrived at Nexus Children’s Hospital – Houston, Chandlar felt confused and depressed. She was still regaining consciousness, ingesting her food and medication through a nasogastric tube, and experiencing nausea, migraines, and disorientation.
