This book was written primarily for speech-language pathologists who are new to the field of traumatic brain injury. However, clinicians who have more experience with TBI have also found the information in this manual to be valuable. More experienced speech-language pathologists will find that the assessment and treatment tables, as well as the reference list, can expand their current knowledge base to enhance their clinical practice. In this manual, the reader will be introduced to the patholophysiology of TBI, and the role of the speech-language pathologist in the rehabilitation process, as well as a framework for approaching assessment, treatment, and reporting. The chapter on family intervention and the reproducible education handouts for families can assist the speech-language pathologist with family counseling and education. The text and references contained in Cognitive-Communication Disorders following Traumatic Brain Injury provide an overview of current theoretical approaches. Clinicians are encouraged to apply this theory to clinical practice in their settings.
