Abstract

Session presented on Sunday, September 18, 2016:

Nurses and providers must advocate stronger for prescribed treatment and provide written education about potential symptoms and limitations following diagnosis of TBI. To ensure this education is provided and proper assessment is being obtained, a longitudinal assessment tool has been created to allow follow up with patients throughout their recovery.
