Brain and Spinal Injuries — What the Numbers Show
Severe head and spinal injuries are a growing public health concern across California:
- The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) reports that traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are one of the leading causes of disability and death statewide, resulting in over 30,000 hospitalizations each year. (cdph.ca.gov)
- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirms that motor-vehicle crashes and falls are the top causes of both brain and spinal cord injuries. (cdc.gov)
- The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) recorded over 91,000 traffic-related injuries in Los Angeles County in 2021, including hundreds involving serious head or back trauma. (ots.ca.gov)
- Data from the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) shows that construction and transportation industries account for the highest number of work-related spinal injuries statewide. (dir.ca.gov)
In a busy area like North Hollywood, where freeways, studios, and construction sites converge, these risks are especially high.
