Acquired Brain Injury (ABI)

A brain injury can affect people in different ways. A person may have problems with memory, concentration, emotions, communication, physical ability and changes in behaviour which can impact in performing everyday activities. Input from our team will depend on the type of brain injury you have had and how this is affecting you and your family.

In order to provide high quality care, we will carry out an initial assessment. This assessment will allow us to identify your needs and the professions that would be best suited to address these. We will also provide you with general advice and it is your choice if you wish to receive further input.
