Dr. Maria Mouratidis from Bethesda Naval Medical Center speaks about the reality of experiencing traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder. A large amount of medical research has been done on these conditions in the last several years, however, there is more research and support that is needed to understand "the experience" from the patient's perspective of these conditions during and after the injury. This is a very great presentation given by a mental health provider who cares for the injured from day 1. She offers her insight of what is done and what needs to be done for those that are injured. Importantly, brain injury and PTSD does not just occur in those who have served protecting out country but also occurs in accidents, domestic violence, sports injuries, etc.
