Hospital-School Collaboration to Serve the Needs of Children with Traumatic Brain Injury
Chesire, David J.; Canto, Angela I.; Buckley, Valerie A.
Journal of Applied School Psychology, v27 n1 p60-76 2011
Traumatic brain injuries are the leading cause of death and disability for children and adolescents each year in the United States. Children who survive these injuries often suffer from a range of impairments including intellectual, academic, behavioral, affective, and social problems, but they often become mired in a slow-moving process while waiting for educational resources. This case study explores one school district's attempts to implement a best practices model of service delivery for students with a traumatic brain injury, focusing on the role of a school psychologist in the multidisciplinary team, candidly discussing and problem-solving several key challenges, and improving the service delivery model overall. (Contains 2 figures.)
