Repairing the injured brain: why proper rehabilitation is essential to recovering function.
Year: 2012
Type: article
Abstract: Recovery from a brain injury is a slow process with no obvious end point-a practical dilemma for patients, caregivers, and medical professionals. While research continues to advance the field to determine optimal interventions (see this complementary article on the neurobiology of injury), front-line providers, like author Mark J. Ashley, founder and CEO of the Centre for Neuro Skills, have found that certain rehabilitation environments and procedures encourage a stronger recovery than others. But even as specialized facilities make strides, many people face barriers to adequate care.
