BRIDGES Guidelines
The BRIDGES Guideline (BRain Injury: Developing GuidElineS for physical activities) development group has released Australia’s first guideline for physical activity for people with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (msTBI).
Key Points:
- Who It’s For: Children (5-17), adults (18+), and older adults (65+) with msTBI.
- Purpose: Helps health professionals and carers support people with msTBI to be more active, improving their health and social lives.
Future Plans:
- The BRIDGES team has received more funding to put this guideline into practice across Australia.
- If you have a msTBI, care for someone who does, or work in this field and want to get involved, email bridges.study@sydney.edu.au.
