Description
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes cognitive and behavioural changes that impact independence, work, relationships and mental health. The larger project will assess needs, barriers and facilitators to service delivery for these issues across Australia, including people in rural areas, culturally and linguistically diverse groups and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and harness this information to implement best practice guidelines for cognitive and psychosocial rehabilitation after TBI. The proposed doctoral project will be the evaluation of this implementation to determine its success in addressing needs and barriers.
