Further information

Cygnet Brunel’s dedicated clinical team provides therapy through an interdisciplinary approach; disciplines including Occupational therapy, Neuropsychiatry, Neuropsychology, Clinical Psychology, Psychiatry, Physiotherapy, and Speech and Language therapy and nursing across RMN, RGN, RNLD specialisms. Support workers facilitate individual service users to make the most of each day and help them on their journey to recovery. Brunel never underestimates the importance of family involvement in the care of our service users. Families provide valuable insight into an individual’s character, choices and ambitions.

Where appropriate, the interdisciplinary team will work closely with relatives in order to help their loved ones make a positive difference within their lives. In addition, the team recognises that it’s difficult for families to be prepared and ready to deal with the results of a brain injury acquired by their loved ones. Depending on need, Brunel’s interdisciplinary team may offer psychoeducation and guidance to families in order to understand the condition, behavioural disturbances and come to terms with any change to an individual’s personality. Families may be taught rehabilitation techniques, which will help them to support and care for their loved ones in the future.

Independent advocates form part of the team at Cygnet Brunel and visit the service weekly to support patients and their loved ones and help them navigate the world post brain injury. A dedicated Cygnet Brunel Expert by Experience will be found at Cygnet Brunel each Thursday to provide his insight and expertise with patients and staff alike.

Cygnet Brunel provides the South West region’s Level 1 Neuropsychiatric Rehabilitation pathways.
