Brain Injury Fundamentals is a training program, created by the Brain Injury Association of America, designed to address the unique needs and challenges of those who care for, or encounter individuals with a brain injury.
The training course covers essential topics such as:
- Cognition
- Guidelines for interacting and building rapport
- Brain injury and behavior
- Medical complications
- Safe medication management
- Families coping with brain injury
When someone sustains a brain injury, it’s not just the life of the individual that is affected, but the lives of family, friends, and people in the community. As part of its mission to provide education that improves the lives of individuals with brain injury, the Academy of Certified Brain Injury Specialists (ACBIS) has targeted the widest possible audience with information that can be used in everyday life.
