A brain injury can result in devastating changes for the person as well as for their family and friends. Sometimes these changes can affect how the person communicates. They may speak too much or not enough, they may have trouble staying on a topic or not be able to think of what to say.
Treatment can improve the communication of the person with brain injury. However, families and friends are often left wondering what they can do to help.
At the ABI Communication Lab we develop evidence-based resources aimed to help people with brain injury, clinicians, families and friends find the best ways to interact during everyday conversations.
