These types of injuries often cause a loss of function and mobility due to severe trauma to critical body systems. Catastrophic injury survivors frequently have disabilities that require continuing medical treatment and care. They need to endure painful medical procedures and participate in rehabilitation programs to promote healing and prevent further damage. Additionally, they often require adaptive equipment and renovate their homes and vehicles to support their needs.

Catastrophic injuries can diminish a person’s quality of life and take away their sense of independence by requiring them to rely on others. They might no longer be able to participate in the activities they have always enjoyed, work to support themselves and their family, or even care for their personal needs.
