Title: Helping postacute traumatically brain injured clients return to work: three case studies. Author: West M, Fry R, Pastor J, Moore G, Killam S, Wehman P, Stonnington H. Journal: Int J Rehabil Res; 1990; 13(4):291-8. PubMed ID: 2100296. Abstract: This paper presents three case studies of individuals who had sustained a severe brain injury and who are clients of a return to work programme emphasizing a supported employment approach. The case studies illustrate the types of interventions which are utilized, including job placement; job site and off-site training, advocacy, and compensatory strategies; and ongoing assessment and maintenance of social and productive gains in order to assist with job retention. The results of the case studies may be generalized to the population of brain injury survivors who require intensive and long-term intervention and support in order to return to employment.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
