SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Neuropsychological Rehabilitation is a ready-to-use therapy tool that provides the resources required to run a six-session information provision/rehabilitation group for people with brain injury, their families and rehabilitation staff. It begins with a rationale for running such groups and presents a case for increasing the allocation of resources to structured information provision. Subsequent chapters provide a collection of materials that enable the professional to run group sessions. Information is presented session-by-session in the form of a 'script' and includes prepared handouts and slides for topics such as memory, attention and executive function. Individual sessions are suitable for stand-alone use, and a chapter covering frequently asked questions is also included."--BOOK JACKET.
