Abstract

Evaluate an intervention to improve an alliance between an interdisciplinary team and clients with traumatic brain injury attending post-acute brain injury rehabilitation. Prospective design, 2 consecutive samples-historical control (CNT) and treatment (TX). Sample of 104 clients (69 CNT, 35 TX) admitted to post-acute brain injury rehabilitation completed admit/discharge questionnaires. The TX group had higher functional status at discharge than the CNT group. Stronger team alliance was associated with program completion, return to productivity, stronger client alliance, less family discord, and fewer depressive symptoms. Findings provide direction for a larger study examining the effectiveness of this intervention to improve outcome after traumatic brain injury.
