Medical Foster Homes & Cognitive Rehabilitation

In this episode, we're traveling! First, our producer goes to Baltimore to check out the Department of Veteran Affairs' medical foster home program, which helps keep veterans out of nursing homes by finding them a place to receive care in a private home. Then we take a trip to the grocery store to talk about one method of cognitive rehabilitation—a group of practices designed to repair of mitigate cognitive deficits caused by brain injuries. The TBI Family is produced by the Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center. This podcast provides caregivers of service members and veterans with TBI with information on traumatic brain injury and highlights resources available to them. We also share caregiver stories.
