Megan Lovorn currently serves as the Director of Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation at the Veterans Administration in Augusta, GA, where she leads the Acute Rehabilitation program for newly admitted spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. With a specialized focus on neuro-rehabilitation, Megan is dedicated to enhancing the quality of care for veterans facing the challenges of SCI and associated conditions. Her expertise extends beyond traditional rehabilitation practices; she is proficient in administering joint injections, trigger point injections, and Botox treatments for spasticity and acquired brain injury (ABI) headaches.
Megan's commitment to improving spasticity care is particularly noteworthy, as she recognizes that less than 15% of neuro patients receive optimal treatment for this condition. This drives her to implement innovative strategies and evidence-based practices within the VA healthcare system, ensuring that veterans receive comprehensive and effective rehabilitation services. Under her leadership, the Acute Rehab program not only focuses on immediate recovery but also emphasizes long-term functional independence and quality of life for patients.
In addition to her clinical responsibilities, Megan is adept in healthcare management and the utilization of Electronic Medical Records (EMR), which enhances patient care coordination and outcomes. Her collaborative approach fosters a multidisciplinary team environment, allowing for holistic treatment plans that address the complex needs of SCI patients. As a leader in the field, Megan Lovorn is committed to advancing rehabilitation practices and advocating for the best possible care for veterans, making a significant impact on their recovery journeys.
