<h3>Dealing with Mental Health injuries and Brain Trauma</h3>
<h3>Dealing with Mental Health injuries and Brain Trauma</h3>
Two federal government employees will share their lived experiences, one resulting in a traumatic brain injury after a fall down a cliff and another dealing with a mental health injury from a traumatic prison incident and cumulative stress. We will hear what happened, how it affected them, how they recovered, their transition back to the workplace, what helped and what didn’t, and how they are doing now. Joining the panel will be a neuro-rehab-based chiropractor and director of the Canadian Brain Performance Clinic, as well as an occupational therapist who will speak about brain injuries from a medical perspective – what happens to the brain, the care needed, treatments available, how to advocate for yourself or someone else, the recovery process, resuming regular activities<ins>,</ins> and successfully transitioning back into the workplace.
