Introduction Queen Elizabeth's Foundation Brain Injury Centre is a rehabilitation centre offering assessment, intensive rehabilitation and education for young adults over the age of 16, who have acquired disabilities and associated learning difficulties as a result of brain injury. It is a registered residential home and accredited by the Learning and Skills Council. We are also members of the National Association of Specialist Colleges and the South Thames Brain Injury Rehabilitation Association. An initial period of detailed assessment leads to the creation of an individual Action Plan - which is negotiated between client and staff - to address each client's needs. The Plan comprises long term goals and shorter term aims and targets, which are regularly evaluated and revised. The staff work closely within an inter-disciplinary framework, offering programmes through: Access to Communication. Cognitive Therapies. Community/Educational Re-integration Creative Therapies Education including ICT Education including ICT Mobility/Driving Occupational Therapies Physical Therapies Speech Therapy and Language Therapy Planning and preparation for the future Practical and Design Skills Recreation and Leisure Vocational Rehabilitation Whilst our core provision focuses on intensive post-medical rehabilitation, we can offer other services to any young person with an acquired neurological condition, reflecting the needs of clients and our established expertise as part of local and regional service developments. For example:

158. Anatomy Of A Head Injury Causes, symptoms and assessment of brain injuries. http://www.ahs.uwaterloo.ca/~cahr/headfall.html

THE ANATOMY OF A HEAD INJURY Injuries involving some type of blow to the head are among the most common in our society. Some 700,000 people in North America suffer traumatic head injuries each year, and between 70,000 and 90,000 are left permanently disabled. Head injuries can range from relatively minor damage to the scalp and face such as lacerations, abrasions and bruising to more serious consequences involving damage to the brain. While traumatic brain injury occurs much less frequently, it is important to know how it is identified and what to do for the person. Loss of consciousness, even for a very brief period, is one of the clearest indications that the brain may have been affected by a blow to the head. A confusional state involving uncertainty about time, date, and location and/or a period of memory loss for the events surrounding the head injury are also indicators of trauma to the brain. Any of these symptoms following a blow to the head should be taken seriously. With the most severe symptoms, loss of consciousness for more than a few minutes, the person should receive immediate medical attention. With less severe symptoms the person should be watched for a period of several hours after the head trauma. The person's state of consciousness, orientation to time and place and immediate memory function (e.g., remembering a series of four numbers) should be evaluated periodically during this time. Any evidence of deterioration may be a sign of the delayed effects of brain injury due to swelling or internal bleeding and require that the person receive medical attention as soon as possible. Some appreciation for how and why these symptoms arise will provide insight into why even a seemingly mild blow to the head may have very serious and potentially life-threatening consequences.
