Abstract:
Understanding and facilitating the process of psychological adjustment to acquired disability arising from brain injury continues to pose a considerable challenge to rehabilitation professionals. This paper reviews the literature on psychological adjustment to acquired disability and chronic health conditions as they may be applied to acquired brain injury. It is proposed that services are developed that address the psychosocial issues faced by survivors of brain injury. Case illustrations are provided that demonstrate a process of adjustment and integration towards participation in meaningful roles within the community.
