Living Beyond Brain Injury: A Guide for Professionals is a professional supplement to Living Beyond Brain Injury: A Compassionate Resilient Guide for Survivors designed for use when Brain Injury Survivors (BISs) require structured, scaffolded rehabilitation in their everyday environments. Drawing on the Supervisory Attentional System model (SAS) and a Compassionate Resilient Mind (CRM), it provides a framework for neuropsychological rehabilitation delivered through Rehabilitstion Support Workers (RSWs) and Multidisciplinary Teams (MDTs). This manual offers psychoeducational resources, structured approaches to goal setting, intervention planning and progress monitoring, alongside practical tools and worksheets to guide real-world application. Emphasis is placed on promoting independence, goal-directed action and sustainable adaptation, whilst avoiding unintentional dependency. Guidance is also provided on how to systematically fade out scaffolded support, enabling BISs to consolidate skills, increase confidence and strengthen resilience, ensuring rehabilitation remains both compassionate and scientifically grounded. This manual is intended for rehabilitation professionals delivering neuropsychological rehabilitation through RSWs and the MDT. It offers particular support for clinical psychologists and neuropsychologists, whilst also providing valuable guidance for case managers, occupational therapists, and RSWs working within this structured model.
