UNDERSTANDING BRAIN INJURY
Brain Injury Awareness and Education
A concussion is a mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) that can affect memory, mood, balance, and concentration. Many people don't realize how serious it can be. If you've experienced a bump, blow, or jolt to the head, early recognition matters
TBI Checklist for PROVIDERS
What is a TBI? Recognize the Signs and Symptoms
A concussion is a mild, traumatic brain injury (TBI). We know it is not "mild" when you are the person that sustained the injury. It is usually caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head that disrupts the normal function of the brain. These TBI's can range from "mild" (a brief change in mental status or consciousness) to "severe" (an extended period of unconsciousness or memory loss after the injury). This checklist will help you better recognize the signs/symptoms of a TBI. The information should be shared immediately with the client's treating health care providers should you suspect a TBI has occurred so they can be put through the BrainCussion system for further evaluation.

Traditional neuropsychological assessments take months to get an appointment followed by hours of sitting in busy waiting rooms.
Traditional TBI tests are difficult for someone with a TBI to complete because the tests are long and complex.
TBIs, concussions, & PTSD often cause neurobehavioral impairments, making it difficult to perform the basic activities of life. Delaying a TBI diagnosis & treatment can make these symptoms even worse.
