Discharge Summary This 32-year-old client sustained a T6 spinal cord injury 3 months ago from a motor vehicle crash that caused paralysis of the lower body. The client was sideswiped by a truck, which caused the car to roll over 3 times and end up in a ditch off the roadway. The client was pinned in the car, and the front end and side of the car crushed the lower half of their body. The client was hospitalized for 3 months. During hospitalization, emergency treatment was administered, and once stabilized, the client was monitored for complications. The client received rehabilitative therapy including PT and OT, and home care services were initiated for discharge. The client is married, and the client’s spouse stays at home caring for their two children, ages 7 and 10.
