This new resource is a hopeful solution to the difficulty in organizing paperwork and having a one-stop-shop for one's care needs. All you need is a binder and a 3 hole punch, maybe some page protectors. Other than that you can download and print whichever pages you'd need. When we are organized, we can better advocate for the care we need.

This new resource is a step in helping the daily needs of individuals living with brain injury. Divided into 4 sections, this toolkit is helpful throughout the rehabilitation process after a brain injury. Templates for checklists, questions, schedules, health check-ins, medication lists, and more are available to use for caregivers, individuals living with brain injury, and professionals. We hope that these supports can allow individuals with brain injury to govern their own lives with the tools to achieve their goals more independently.

This new resource is a great find for advocates for those looking to be more involved in the their care. It's often that professionals start talking with acronyms and confusing words that those outside the brain injury service system may not be used to hearing every day. We hope this guide helps you to navigate services easier and to engage in community councils/committee to communicate your needs.

This new resource is a step in supporting residential services for people with brain injury. It includes strategies for daily living, a brain injury friendly space, schedule suggestions, and monitoring. Pages can be used by professionals and printed for individuals living with brain injury to review & discuss how it may impact them. A safe and healthy environment can lend to improvement and growth after brain injury.
