Far too often, careless landlords negligently fail to make timely repairs. They may also hire poorly trained maintenance workers to fix the problems -- and allow them to use substandard building materials while handling their repair tasks; if someone is sleeping or otherwise present beneath a roof when it crashes down, severe or catastrophic physical injuries can occur. Property damage losses can also be extensive, and some possessions...

After suffering a traumatic brain injury, accident survivors can develop a wide array of critical medical problems, including major breathing difficulties. Immediate medical care must be obtained so the affected person can keep breathing, and the brain can avoid losing crucial oxygen. Too many lives are lost as emergency workers try to determine whether a patient is coping with ARDS, acute respiratory distress syndrome, or another major breathing disorder.
