Headway2work: here’s the key information about our service!

A great way to round out #ABIWeek2023 by attending the @HeadwayDton conference. Nice to hear from Luke Griggs from @HeadwayUK to get a national viewpoint. Lovely to see @HeadwayTyneside represented talking about our @Headway2Work program and partnership.

Today’s the day! Looking forward to speaking at this event 🙌

@HeadwayTyneside have had some fantastic news! Our Headway2Work service for residents of Durham and Darlington has been recommissioned for 2023/2024. Keep those referrals coming! @NorthStarRehab @HelenKolster2 @Rachellees2018 @MNakonesky @HeadwayDton @HeadwayCD @_CDADU_

Behavioural changes after brain injury are many and varied. Some appear to be an exaggeration of previous personality characteristics, while others may seem completely out of character for that person. Find out more: headway.org.uk/about-brain-in…

We explored the emotional effects of brain injury, including managing anger & frustration and dealing with anxiety headway.org.uk/about-brain-in…

Week 4 of our Brain Injury Basics course covered ‘Emotion and Behaviour’. Learners resonated with this video from Anna, who shared her experiences as part of @HeadwayUK’s “Brain Injury and Me” series. youtu.be/wvZleKkloAs

Today our brain injury awareness course focussed on the ‘3Ps’ of fatigue management: Pace, Plan and Prioritise. 🐢📋✅

An absolute pleasure as always- it’s not often our therapists get to have a morning dance before their OT sessions! #vocationalrehab

Always a pleasure to call in and see you all! 💙

Our occupational therapists Jo and Jill met for clinical supervision yesterday - glad to see they found some time for walking in a winter wonderland!💕🎄❄️

@VickiGilman thank you for a brilliant presentation- so much respect for the multi-faceted work of case managers when hearing the complexities of the case study you shared! #darlingtonconference

The term ‘road accident’ exemplifies society’s tolerance of road danger. RoadPeace is pleased to see government listening to the voices of road crash victims who find the word accident upsetting. #crashnotaccident

So good to learn more about @RoadPeace - a national charity supporting victims of road crashes and their families, as well as campaigning for safer roads #darlingtonconference
