Need better POINT OF CARE resources while caring for your patients with SPINAL CORD INJURIES?
You’ve come to the right place.

The two U.S. based North American societies for SCI professionals – ASIA and ASCIP – have partnered with primary care provider colleagues and consumers to curate, develop and disseminate easy to use resources for busy providers.

 Health Maintenance and Episodic Care

Ninety percent of patients with spinal cord injury/disease identify FPs as their “regular doctors.”

These resources can help you keep them healthy and out of the hospital.
