When brain injury hits your life it's a time of huge uncertainty with days, weeks, even months spent in hospital.
In this episode, we look at that time of crisis following brain injury and how best to support family members, friends and the patient themselves when they are in hospital.
Joining us to discuss the topic is Suzy Barker, an adviser at Addenbrookes hospital, who helps families and patients after they have had a stroke or other brain injury.
She gives advice on how best to deal with this life-changing event including...
- Positive ways families can help loved ones when in hospital
- The most common questions she gets asked after stroke and other brain injuries
- Tips on taking children to see parents or other family members in hospital.
- How friends can help when making hospital visits and when the patient is home
