HI
Thank for asking to HCM
If his condition becomes neurologically deficit because of the accident, then he will be in need of continue nursing care, because it said to be double jeopardy, if his cns status is intact then he could do better as he was doing before the accident it may not be big problem, take care of him and have nice day.
