Improving staff awareness of the experiences of people with acquired brain injury and their families through co-produced training
Project Background
Our Facilitator project with Brain Injury Matters NI (BIM) will enhance the understanding and awareness of the importance of hope and how recovery is a long-term journey that continues well beyond the initial rehabilitation people with acquired brain injury receive.
The project will work with people who use BIM services and their family members to identify the key messages of what helps in their recovery and everyday lives; and coproduce training material to convey these messages for health and social care staff who may work with them. By fostering co-production and collaboration, the project aims to create a cultural shift, ensuring services are more inclusive, respectful, and responsive. BIM seeks to build long-term partnerships with health and social care trusts, embedding continuous improvement and real-world insights into training. This project is based in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
