About the Brain Injury Program
Individuals who have experienced brain injury are likely to have difficulty with memory, communication, thinking and reasoning skills. They also may have problems maintaining appropriate behavior in social situations.
The Inpatient Brain Injury Program at Kernan Hospital offers a supportive, therapeutic environment for adults and adolescents with brain injuries. Through comprehensive structural, cognitive remediation, behavioral management and physical rehabilitation sessions, the program assists patients in reaching the highest possible level of independence and social functioning in order to achieve community re-entry whenver possible.
