Improving Traumatic Brain Injury Rehab Care With Comm Health Services: a Research Project Within the TBI Model System

TBI rehabilitation care transitions refer to the processes of preparing patients, families, and community-based healthcare providers for the patient's passage from inpatient rehabilitation to the home and community or to another level of care. Persons with TBI have heterogenous neurological impairment (cognitive and behavioral foremost, along with motor, sensory, and balance), that limits their functional independence and participation, and increases their risk for secondary medical conditions, injuries, rehospitalizations and early mortality
