The new center will care for adolescents with brain or spinal cord injury, as well as those with co-occurring behavioral, mental and physical health needs.
Neuropsychological evaluations focus on intelligence, attention, memory, language, mood, and personality — to list a few areas. Through these assessments, neuropsychologists assess how the brain functions and identifies strengths and areas of dysfunction. The findings can help make accurate diagnoses, establish competency or diminished capacity, and inform treatment modalities and medication usage.
Children with established weight control problems, including childhood obesity and Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), often need a safe, structured environment to help them reach weight loss and general health and wellness goals. Offering a welcoming, home-like setting, Nexus Children’s Hospital’s Jump Start Health & Wellness program in The Woodlands helps our young patients decrease their body mass index (BMI) while addressing other weight-related conditions and medical diagnoses.
When individuals experience traumatic brain injury (TBI) or cognitive impairment, sleep disorders are often an issue. One study estimated 30-70% of individuals who experience even mild injuries also experience sleep disturbances. Sleep is a vital part of brain health and recovery. In a study published in the journal Neurology, a strong association was found between positive sleep-wake quality and consciousness and cognition improvement. At Nexus Health Systems, our comprehensive adult brain injury neurocontinuum includes this important aspect of recovery.
For individuals living with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), health problems often go beyond weight gain and maintenance. PWS is a rare genetic disorder that can cause learning and behavioral issues in addition to health problems related to obesity and weight gain. PWS is caused by an abnormality on the 15th chromosome, and genetic testing is required to make an accurate diagnosis. As the only nationally recognized program for children with PWS, our experts provide personalized treatment plans to help young people develop lifelong management strategies.
Just ten days after giving birth to her first child, Silas, by c-section, Connie Gardner began to experience a tremendous headache. Just moments after handing Silas over to her husband, Matt, Connie abruptly became unresponsive.
Connie had suffered a severe brain bleed and subsequent hydrocephalus when an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) ruptured in her brain. In November 2020, after nearly one month in a self and then medically induced coma at a local neuro-ICU, Connie arrived at Nexus Specialty Hospital in a minimally conscious state.
According to the American Stroke Association, stroke is one of the leading causes of disability in the United States. While about 10% of stroke survivors recover almost completely, more than 65% of stroke patients live with minor to severe impairments that affect them for the rest of their lives. While it is always important to establish a supportive care system for ongoing rehabilitation, many stroke survivors lead full, meaningful lives at home with some positive, personalized changes to their daily routines.
On April 4, the Nexus Hope Foundation’s Principle Investigator, Dr. John Cassidy, gave a presentation titled, “Impact of Zolpidem in the Treatment of Prolonged Disorders of Consciousness” to peers and colleagues at the 2022 American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Annual Meeting in Seattle, Washington.
James Thorne woke up at Nexus Specialty Hospital on April 14, 2021 and had no idea where he was.
Six weeks earlier he had gone to sleep at a hospital in Tomball, Texas after being admitted for COVID-19, severe COVID-induced pneumonia, and several different respiratory infections. James was put on a ventilator and after suffering a number of complications from his conditions, his medical team made the decision to put him into a medically induced coma to give him the best chance at recovery. When James failed to respond to the treatment after several weeks, his wife, Carrie, made the decision to have him moved to Nexus Specialty Hospital in The Woodlands after the facility was highly recommended to her by several contacts in Tomball.
Individuals who have experienced traumatic or acquired brain trauma require specialized brain injury rehabilitation and treatment in order to meet their personal recovery goals. Families may not know where to begin when evaluating rehabilitation and treatment programs, and they may not know what treatment options are available. At Nexus Health Systems, we have pioneered patient-focused programs that provide comprehensive and seamless care for every stage of the recovery journey.
There are more than 17,000 new reported spinal cord injury cases in the U.S. each year. According to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA), approximately 20% of these occur in children and adolescents, most commonly as a result of motor vehicle accidents or falls.
In 2016 Olivia Guindon was admitted to Nexus Children’s Hospital with a massive brain injury following a serious motor vehicle accident. She was a fighter and had overcome immense physical challenges including surgery and a 21-day coma. Olivia participated in intense physical, occupational, and speech therapy before transitioning into outpatient therapy. Nexus clinical teams were astounded at her tenacity and determination to make a full recovery. Her competitive nature left her eager to stand up from her wheelchair and relearn everyday tasks, but her true motivator was something much more special: her non-negotiable goal of getting back on the softball field.
While pediatric COVID-19 infections tend to present less severe symptoms than adults, there is still sometimes a need for pediatric respiratory services and pulmonary care during and after a COVID-19 case. For children who are chronically ill, physically fragile, or traumatically injured, the need for specialized respiratory and pulmonary care may increase.
Nexus Health Systems is excited to open their second Nexus Children’s Hospital location, in The Woodlands. The ribbon cutting took place in late September 2021 to celebrate the expansion of the hospital system’s one-of-a-kind Jump Start Health and Wellness Program for children with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) and those struggling with childhood obesity.
Several research studies on olfactory training have been published this year, due in part to one of the potential side effects of COVID-19 infection – loss of smell, or olfactory dysfunction. While research has not yet pinpointed the reason for this side effect, it is most frequently attributed to post-viral olfactory dysfunction (PVOD). One of the most effective treatments for PVOD is olfactory training, and Nexus Neurorecovery Center has been using structured, short-term exposure to selected essential oils to help restore patients’ sense of smell. The training has also been found to help regenerate damaged olfactory sensory neurons.

Months after recovering from the acute symptoms of COVID-19, many patients are struggling with long-term effects on the brain: difficulty concentrating, memory problems, or mental fatigue. Known as “brain fog,” these lasting effects can impact even individuals who had mild cases of the virus, causing serious problems as they return to work and normal life.
Feeling safe is an important foundation for everyone in a new environment, especially patients and residents recovering from a life-changing injury or illness. To feel their best and do their best, these individuals must feel secure — and we take their trust in us very seriously.
When an individual experiences a traumatic brain injury, or an event that impacts their neurological function, frequently the symptoms aren’t just physical. When it comes to injuries to the brain, behavioral challenges can manifest as well. The focus at Nexus Neurorecovery Center is on helping residents recover from injuries or effects of an illness by addressing both physical rehabilitation and behavioral health treatment.
Nexus Health Systems officially opened their new 16-bed inpatient rehabilitation unit (IRU) at Nexus Specialty Hospital during a virtual grand opening at the end of January.

Facility CEO, Mary Harbeson, said, “We are very pleased to partner with Pediatrix as they are a highly regarded medical group and one of the nation’s largest providers of neonatal and pediatric services.”
After a brain injury, most individuals require rehabilitation to regain strength and skills. The process at Nexus Children’s Hospital, is upon admission, the child is evaluated, and referrals are made to start a variety of rehabilitation disciplines, including occupational, physical, and speech therapy. However, the severity of a patient’s brain injury impacts the level of therapy the team recommends.
Neurological diseases occur when there is a dysfunction of the nervous system involving the brain, spinal cord, and/or peripheral nerves. These diseases may be acute, chronic, or a combination of both. Brain injury may occur as a sudden onset following a motor vehicle collision or stoke while cases like Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), or multiple sclerosis may take some time to present.
Food control focuses on creating an environment that limits access to food. Children who have medical conditions associated with binge eating and weight gain may need to live, learn, and play in spaces that either don’t have food or have food securely stored away to prevent unlimited intake. Families with children who have Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS), a rare genetic disorder, those with medical issues like diabetes or weight gain, as well as those who are food seeking due to behavioral or cognitive issues should consider how the following information can help create safer spaces.
Having already donated $63.6k in previous years, You First Foundation recently presented Nexus Children’s Hospital with its latest donation of $19.4k at the ribbon cutting for a new wheelchair playground swing.

Activities of Daily Living, or ADLs as they’re commonly referred to, are grouped into lower level and higher level tasks or actions that bring purpose and meaning to a person’s life. ADLs in your life could be getting ready for work each morning, preparing meals, or taking care of children. Although these activities are often taken for granted, brain injured individuals have to work diligently to rebuild the skills necessary to successfully complete these day-to-day tasks.
Nexus Children’s Hospital offers a Pediatric Pulmonary Program for children who are chronically ill, physically fragile, or traumatically injured. The program provides care to children who require short-term tracheostomy/ventilator management, as well as those with long-term tracheostomy/ventilator dependencies who will return home.
Patients benefit from evidence-based therapies, new equipment and additional space
The therapy area at Nexus Specialty Hospital has tripled in size and will advance the hospital’s ability to use evidence-based therapies to help patients reach their treatment goals.
“Many of our patients come to us in a coma or persistent vegetative state. What we want to do, and what families are hopeful we can do, is have our patients move forward to a state where they are increasingly conscious and able to interact with the world,” says Dr. Cassidy, Founder, CEO and Chief Medical Officer of Nexus Health Systems. “Now, with novel technologies, novel medications, and novel rehabilitation strategies, we’ve been able to make that progress.”
Pediatric behavioral health services offered in an inpatient hospital setting permits caregivers to treat a child’s medical needs while also addressing behavioral challenges. Nexus Children’s Hospital is now one of the only facilities in the Houston area that successfully treats patients with serious behavioral issues, including aggression, that have underlying diagnoses such as autism, cognitive impairment, acquired and traumatic brain injury, and Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS).
After a traumatic event like a brain injury, it’s crucial for children and adults alike to be evaluated to understand how the injury affected their brain and what recommendations could be implemented for greater success in life.

Most people are familiar with the feeling of stress. Your heart may beat faster, your breath could quicken, your blood pressure might rise, and your muscles might tense up. This is called the flight or fight response — what our bodies may do in reacting to being chased by a bear, for example. This reaction improves our ability to survive the stress that is causing it.

After an injury or illness, individuals need comprehensive rehabilitation to lead meaningful and productive lives. Integral to their recovery is occupational therapy. Tailored therapy helps individuals regain skills to complete daily activities, from bathing and grooming, to money management and problem solving. Occupational therapy is also important because it helps individuals learn to live with any physical or cognitive deficits resulting from their injury or illness. Learning compensatory strategies can help patients live life to the fullest.
