By and Medicine National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, Health and Medicine Division, Board on Health Sciences Policy, Forum on Traumatic Brain Injury, Katherine Bowman, Chanel Matney, Tamara Haag

The National Academies Forum on Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) hosted a hybrid public workshop in May 2023 to explore what is needed to better serve adult TBI patients who require follow-up care in support of their recovery at home. Speakers discussed when and how to follow up with less-severe TBI patients who have been discharged to their homes after a brief period of acute care, and the varied needs, issues, and considerations that relate to outpatient care and at-home symptom management during the approximately 6-month period following injury.This publication summarizes the presentation and discussion of the workshop.
