Literature Review: The Gap
① Family involvement is frequently identified as a key element of successful rehab Yet, we don’t know how clinicians can best
involve them1 ② Family centered care & effective
communication were among the top quality of care indicators for rehabilitation of children with traumatic brain injury2
③ A strong need exists for improved communication skills3
Literature continued…
Health care professionals need to work together and also with the patients & their families5
Disrespect or insensitivity reported more commonly than technical errors in diagnosis and treatment4
Approaches to Improve Communication

experts lectures and education

Rehab: Philosophy of Care
Maximizing people’s potential Def: “Habilitation includes all the activities & interactions that enable an
individual with a disability to develop new abilities to achieve his/her maximum potential, whereas rehabilitation is the re-learning of previous skills, which often requires an adjustment to altered functional abilities and altered lifestyle. (Pg 4, Edwards, Hertzberg, Hays, + Youngblood, 1999, pediatric Rehab Nursing).
Patient engagement is fundamental – the vehicle – to maximize rehab benefits (Lequerica & Kortte, 2010).
