Abstract: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has a devastating effect on all aspects of a person's life, which negatively impacts the individual's quality of life. Indeed, the individual is not the same person following TBI. However, through systematic life care planning and appropriate long-term care, this negative impact can be mitigated.
