Abstract:
Children with traumatic brain injury (TBI), regardless of the severity of the injury, often face challenges when living in home, school and community. Their needs are often overlooked and recognition of the long-term consequences is not always central to the management of the child in the school or community. This article provides references to pertinent literature and suggestions for intervention from the clinical experiences of four individuals with extensive experience of the family stresses, educational, cognitive-communicative and behavioural challenges that occur after TBI in children. It provides information regarding these issues, particularly educational situations, and suggests methods that may be useful for service providers and family members.
Keywords:Children with traumatic brain injury  cognitive-communicative challenges  educational challenges  behavioural issues  family concerns
