IHIF Neurorehabilitation Centre Patna

Vision and mission including the year of Inception

 With essentially no infrastructure for rapid response and treatment, India has the highest incidence of head injuries in the world. The Indian head Injury Foundation (IHIF) was founded to help remedy this largely preventable crisis. Founded by His Highness Maharaja Gaj Singh II of Marwar -Jodhpur in 2007, IHIF’s Mission is to build a comprehensive system in India for the prevention of accidents and head injuries, provision of pre-hospital care, safe evacuation of victims of traumatic brain injury (TBI) to hospital, and to provide neurorehabilitation to such patients post-hospitalization.

Neurorehabilitation centre Patna established in September 2019.
