Understanding brain injury For care professionals working with brain injury survivors

“The use of handouts, additional resources and the willingness to include reflective notes are all great practice, and should enhance the learning value of the training”.

What will I learn?

This CPD Certified session has been designed for care professionals, rehabilitation support workers, local authorities and those working with brain injury survivors.

During this session, we will aim to give delegates a better understanding of brain injury and its effects on survivors and their carers/families.

We will then explore the cognitive, emotional and behavioural difficulties individuals face following a brain injury and some strategies that can be implemented.

"The training was very helpful in understanding the cognitive problems after brain injury, so that practitioners can support brain injury survivors with different attention and memory strategies. The case studies and videos highlighted the often hidden effects of a brain injury and that the social network of a brain injury survivor is so important."
