What this guide will cover
Traumatic brain injury care is the least understood service we offer, and the one families most often discover by accident. This guide is being written to explain it properly.
- What TBI care involves in a residential home setting
- How it differs from memory care, and why the distinction matters
- Who Fireweed serves, including younger adults
- What daily life and routines look like
- How families and case managers start a conversation about placement
- Local and statewide resources for brain injury support
What TBI care involves
Planned: how care is structured around routine, environment, and consistent caregivers who come to know each resident's triggers, abilities, and goals.
How it differs from memory care
Planned: the important distinction between a progressive condition such as dementia and a brain injury, which may be stable or improving - and why the two call for different approaches.
Daily life at Fireweed
Planned: a description of the home, its routines, and how residents spend their days.
Starting a conversation
Planned: how families, hospital discharge planners, and case managers can begin a placement conversation, and what information helps us assess whether we are the right fit.
