Tackling clinical neuropsychology’s ‘wicked’ problem: Evidencing the value of a multiagency approach to rehabilitation for people with ABI and complex social needs

Abstract

People with ABI and complex social needs are not well served by current activity-based contracts. This vulnerable subgroup is at heightened risk of falling through the gaps and of suffering preventable harm. Key predictors include younger age and executive dysfunction. This paper describes a survey on clinical complexity that was conducted within a community neuropsychology service. The results informed the development ofa matched care model, as well as new tria,ging and data collection tools.
