Head Trauma I

NPR's Ina Jaffe visits a treatment center in southern California where survivors of traumatic head injury relearn some of the basics of day-to-day living. Improvements in surgery and emergency medical care have saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of brain-injured people, but at the same time created a need for a special kind of "rehabilitation of the mind."
