Individuals with a brain injury or any other chronic condition possess a lifetime of experiences. These past experiences and the present environment can significantly affect how they cope with their brain injury and influence their overall health. Collectively, these experiences and environments are known as non-medical drivers of health.
A recent subgroup from the Moody Galveston Conference developed a fact sheet aimed at helping healthcare providers adopt a more holistic approach to treatment. This ensures that they consider factors beyond just the brain injury itself.
Both English and Spanish versions of the fact sheet are available and include specific guidance and resources. We encourage you to help distribute these valuable resources within your networks.
This product was developed with support from the 2023 Moody Galveston Brain Injury Conference (MGBIC) contributors, hosted by NASHIA, with funding from the Moody Endowment.
This new action collaborative and clinical practice guideline, published in the Annals of Family Medicine, provides evidence-based recommendations to enhance care coordination and outcomes for individuals with brain injury. The guideline emphasizes cross-system collaboration and practical strategies for improving care delivery. NASHIA was honored to serve as part of the external review process.
NASHIA's Maria Crowley and Zaida Ricker were consulted as subject matter experts on the creation of this new training from CDC!
Brain injuries are often an invisible consequence of intimate partner violence (IPV). The CDC’s TBI-IPV Hidden Harms online training (≈25 minutes) offers interactive lessons for professionals working with survivors - helping you:
Recognize the link between IPV and brain injury
Respond with trauma-informed practices
Offer meaningful accommodations that support recovery
This is a critical resource for advocates, victim services providers, behavioral health professionals, and anyone in the space of IPV and brain injury.
