Brain Injury can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time and can have a devastating and long-lasting effect on the individual and their families.
Our outreach support services offers specialist care and support for adults with a traumatic or non traumatic Acquired Brain Injury in areas of the South East in their own homes.
We work in partnership with the individual, people who are significant in their lives and others in their circle of support to provide the care and support that will enable individuals to make choices and decisions to achieve their expectations, maximise skills and live their life as independently as possible.
What support can our outreach support service offer to someone who has an Acquired Brain Injury?
- Services that are inclusive and focused on the individual.
