Contemporary Perspectives is the first book to address social work
practice in the field of brain injury (BI). Contributions are
written by social work authors from around the world, and highlight
the diversity of social work practice and theory within this field.
Chapters range from practice spanning interventions with families
caring for a child with BI; interventions to assist the adjustment
of families facing the challenge of supporting an adult relative
with BI during the inpatient rehabilitation or post-acute community
phase; work with parents with BI who are caring for children deemed
to be at risk; and a literature review outlining the impact of a BI
on siblings. Other chapters detail a program for self-advocacy;
investigate the impact of violence-related BI; evaluate a
peer-support program for people with BI; report on the role of
support people in facilitating return to work after BI; and examine
the role of social work within the interdisciplinary rehabilitation
team. The volume highlights the valuable role social work makes to
the field of BI and contributes to the knowledge base informing
evidence-informed practice within this field. This book was
originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Social
Work in Disability & Rehabilitation.
