Jeremy Romero, a former police officer, found his life upended during a high speed pursuit on a graveyard shift. What began as a typical night on patrol, complete with the promise of a morning breakfast with his son, quickly transformed into a defining moment when Jeremy suffered a spinal cord injury. His story serves as a powerful reminder of the critical role that informed and active involvement in care decisions plays for individuals facing catastrophic injuries. Through Jeremy's experience, we witness the importance of self-advocating for necessary care and accommodations.
His determination and commitment to his well-being, coupled with the utilization of advanced technology in his recovery process, has earned him the moniker 'Robocop,' a title reminiscent of the iconic 1987 film. As the first cop to receive an exoskeleton, he offers support for injured police officers and workers alike to get the resources they need. Join Jeremy on his transformative path from adversity to empowerment with the support of post-settlement resources such as Rewalk and CareGuard, providing him the necessary tools to reclaim his recovery journey and return to meaningful work.
