In March of this year, 19-year-old Tommy was visiting his brother in California when he sustained multiple injuries, including a traumatic brain injury, in a serious car accident. After a month in the Intensive Care Unit, still unable to speak, eat or sit upright, Tommy was deemed ineligible for rehabilitation and was transferred to a nursing home.
At Ranken Jordan we’re surrounded by heroes just like CC. From the tiniest babies who learn how to eat and breathe on their own, to the toddlers who are learning what life is like outside of the hospital room. And teenagers like CC, whose lives have been changed by illness or accidents, are determined to get better, faster and stronger every day.
