“Since 1982, Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute has provided needed traumatic brain injury rehabilitation, education and assistance to patients from Galveston and throughout the United States. In a similar way, St. Vincent’s House has provided important physical, mental, and spiritual services to our community for over 60 years,” said Dr. Prehn.
St. Vincent’s House partners with a number of agencies in order to provide community clinical services, case management, emergency assistance, and spiritual services.
“The ability to move about for essential obligations or activities is something most of us take for granted.
