Brain injuries are often referred to as a “silent epidemic” because symptoms are not always immediately evident, and the general public has limited knowledge about the diagnosis. Brain injuries can cause an increased susceptibility to multi-occurring conditions, including mental health diagnosis.
What Can We Do About It?
Treatment professionals need to be aware of a history of brain injury in individuals.
It is important to screen for brain injury upon intake and coordinate an effective treatment plan with a multi-disciplinary team of providers that have experience and knowledge about brain injury.
