About brain injury

We support people with brain injuries through their rehabilitation journey, from diagnosis and treatment to ongoing support and independence.

brain injury

What is a brain injury?

The brain is involved in almost everything we do, so injury to the brain, either through trauma or illness, can have a wide range of effects. These vary from person to person, depending on the exact nature and severity of the injury.

What is brain injury rehabilitation?

The type of rehabilitation after a brain injury is specific to the needs of the person affected, as every injury is unique. Our overview gives you an insight into different kinds of specialist support and services that help natural recovery after someone has received a brain injury.

What is neurobehavioural rehabilitation?

Brainkind’s approach combines the best evidence-based, scientific methods of training and changing behaviour, understanding the exact nature of brain injury, and a philosophy of community-based rehabilitation.
