Vocational Communication Group treatment in an outpatient head injury facility.

A challenging goal for clients with brain injury is to obtain employment and maintain the position. The New Medico Neurologic System at Nassau (NMNS) focuses on strengthening communication skills prior to placement in the work site. A three-phase programme is described which is designed to assist clients in integrating specific educational training and performance objectives in each. A case study is presented to illustrate a successful outcome. Factors between group components and successful outcomes are discussed, including the programme design, specific strategies and the possible role of self-confidence. Future research is recommended.

Supported employment and compensatory strategies for enhancing vocational outcome following traumatic brain injury.

This paper describes two approaches to improving the employment prospects of those suffering from head injury. It is noted that unemployment within the first 7 years post-head injury is as high as 70% and that this contributes to the long-term difficulties faced by the head-injured and their families. A 'supportive' approach to employment involving the use of job coordinators or job coaches is described and a number of 'compensatory' strategies described. These two approaches are compatible and are derived from the individual needs of the head injured person in relation to retaining or seeking employment.
