About the Spinal Cord Injury Association:

A spinal cord injury (SCI) is an unexpected life-changing event for an individual and their loved ones. The newly-injured and those around them must learn to cope with this dramatic change and gradually adjust to post-injury life. The Greater Boston Chapter (GBC) of the National Spinal Cord Injury Association works to reach, inspire, support and empower those affected by spinal cord injury. From the moment of injury, they offer critical support, one-on-one comprehensive services and access to resources that no other entity provides.

The GBC provides critical services in conjunction with its Peer Visitation Program, designed to help people live long, healthy, productive and independent lives. A spinal cord injury not only means a loss of one’s ability to ambulate, it brings on a host of very specific health concerns that may include skin breakdown, chronic pain and Autonomic Dysreflexia to name just a few. Individuals with SCI are required to become medical experts on their own behalf. They need to understand a myriad of health warning signs and are often called upon to educate health care providers about their own health needs because medical school textbooks are not well versed on SCI issues. The GBC educates the newly injured and teaches them how to monitor their health and advocate on their own behalf to ensure that they receive the best healthcare possible.

The GBC works hard to make sure that no newly injured individual is left to figure it out on their own. To learn more about the EIP program please contact their office at 781.933.8666.
