Headway Swindon aim to support each client in their day-to-day life with the use of social rehabilitation.
What is Social Rehabilitation?
Social rehabilitation helps clients manage the effects of their brain injury on the way they think and behave.
Social rehabilitation is practised within our group sessions and also in social time between sessions. Attendees are made aware of the effects that their behaviour is having on others, and how to identify triggers for inappropriate actions.
How will this help?
Social rehabilitation can help clients integrate back into society following their brain injury. It helps clients understand how to deal with real life scenarios, such as techniques for managing anger and anxiety.
The use of Social rehabilitation will allow individuals to increase their self-esteem and confidence. Feelings of isolation are improved as a result of an improvement in relationships at home and in the community.
