» HeadNorth Foundation Launches the Response One Application Program™
The HeadNorth Foundation recently introduced the Response One Application Program™ to assist with the urgent and immediate needs of individuals and families who have been affected by spinal cord injury. The first 48 hours following a traumatic injury can be particularly difficult and frightening. The Response One Application Program™ was designed to help guide patients and families through this challenging time.
"Following a spinal cord injury, both the patient and his or her family experience significant changes as they come to terms with the increased physical and psychological needs of the patient," says Randal Schober, executive director of the HeadNorth Foundation. "HeadNorth can provide the vital resources and mentoring to make this transition as smooth as possible"
The Response One Application Program™, which will be introduced to hospitals and clinics throughout San Diego County, will help fund immediate transportation and lodging requirements for families, provide resources to educate and assist in the upcoming transition, and make available in-hospital counseling by individuals who have first-hand knowledge of spinal cord injury.
