Have you ever thought about traumatic injury as a chronic disease? We often perceive injury as a one-time event, but the reality is that the effects of traumatic injury can last a lifetime. In season 3 of Injury is NOT Equal, we delve into injury recidivism—when survivors of traumatic injuries return to the emergency department with repeated injuries. We’ll explore the psychological and physiological aspects of re-injury and the social determinants that perpetuate this cycle.
Stay tuned as we uncover the critical role of tertiary prevention in breaking the cycle of injury recidivism. Through insightful discussions with experts and personal stories from those affected, we aim to bring awareness to health inequities and discuss ways to improve health through an injury prevention lens.
