Why utilize TBI services from the Epilepsy Foundation?
It’s true that conditions such as traumatic or acquired brain injury as well as stroke are not epilepsy, yet there are many striking similarities in their symptoms and in the kinds of services those afflicted may need. • Fifty percent of individuals with brain injuries will experience seizures at some point in their lives. • Many will need options in the way of housing and support to live independently. • Many may seek employment services. • Their families will likely benefit from support groups. All of these areas are within the Epilepsy Foundation’s expertise and experience. In addition, the Epilepsy Foundation has a local professional advisory board made up of neurologists and other health professionals with experience in neurological issues, so we are attuned to the latest developments in treatment and patient support.
