In this episode, host Charles Wooley sits down with Beth Hanks-Clark, CNP, of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation at Arkansas Children’s Hospital, for a powerful and personal conversation about pediatric traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)—from severe trauma to mild concussions—and how early intervention and follow-up care are changing outcomes for kids.

👶 What You’ll Learn:
