Launch of revised factsheet for executive dysfunction after brain injury

Mon 16 Jan 2023

Executive dysfunction is a term that not many people are familiar with, but one that commonly affects brain injury survivors. It can interfere with many aspects of life including activities of daily living, relationships, manging finances and working.

We have revised our Executive dysfunction after brain injury factsheet to explain this all-too-common effect of brain injury and to provide guidance on how to cope with it.

The factsheet includes self-coping tips as well as directing to professional forms of support. It also explains how our Brain Injury Identity Card can help survivors who experience difficulties in social situations due to their executive dysfunction.

With expert input from Professor Jonathan Evans, Professor of Clinical Neuropsychology, we hope that this factsheet helps brain injury survivors with executive dysfunction to cope with this challenging effect of brain injury.

We would also like to offer many thanks to Irwin Mitchell for their kind sponsorship of this factsheet, which helps us to make our information available free-of-charge to those affected by brain injury.
