Brain Injury Fundamentals:

Supporting someone with a brain injury (BI) can involve complex questions about cognition, health, medications, behavior, and day-to-day care. Our Brain Injury Fundamentals course provides caregivers, direct support staff, and professionals with foundational knowledge to better understand BI and provide informed support.
