    Coordinated Emergency Care

    Patients with serious neurological injuries may require rapid imaging, close monitoring, surgery or intensive care. Our clinical teams coordinate care based on the severity of the injury and the patient's needs.

    Following initial treatment, some patients may also need rehabilitation and ongoing specialty care to support recovery.
