How Can Rehab Social Work Help After Traumatic Brain Injury?

Social worker Richard Green describes how social work helps TBI survivors in the acute rehab phase by identifying resources (financial/ caregiver/ residential) and by educating and counseling the survivor and family to help all involved adjust to the physical, emotional, and cognitive changes after traumatic brain injury.
He offers advice to families and survivors, as well as talks about therapeutic self-disclosure in helping survivors adapt to their new life after TBI.
Watch to the end to see clips of Richard's musical performance group of brain injury survivors.

I have a social worker starting to come and see me at home after being discharged from Brain Injury rehab. I have no idea what I am meant to do and say and talk about. I dont know why they are coming....I have not asked for this.
