Overview:

Working with individuals with brain injury can be quite a challenge. Impairments are often frustrating for the person, their loved ones, and the professionals trying to help them. Sometimes impairments can be confused with attitude. This webinar will focus on strategies for working with impairments such as impulsivity, distractibility, mental flexibility, initiation and comprehension, as well as the anger and grief that can intensify them.

Webinar Objectives:

  1. Review 10 impairments that can be confused with attitude or resistance to treatment.
  2. Explore how anger and grief can intensify impairments.
  3. Learn five techniques for each challenge that can be implemented into their daily practice.
