A proactive model for treating communication disorders in children and adolescents with traumatic brain injury
1Speech and Hearing Center, School of Communicative Disorders, University of Akron, OH 44325-3001.
Abstract:
This proactive approach to assessment and intervention focuses both on looking ahead to determine problems the student with TBI is likely to encounter as a result of cognitive-communicative impairments, and on developing solutions to those problems. Intervention places the family and other important people in the student's life at the center of the treatment process. Family members, teachers, peers, and coworkers can be incorporated into the intervention program. Strategies and techniques can be implemented within the home, school, community, and work setting. To do so, professionals must be committed to working closely with others to develop collaborative relationships.
