Brain Injury Care at Home

Brain injury care at home provides specialist support for people living with the effects of an acquired or traumatic brain injury, helping them manage daily life while continuing their recovery in a familiar environment.

Support is tailored to the individual and may involve assistance with mobility, communication, cognition, behaviour, rehabilitation goals, or more complex clinical needs. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, care is designed around the person's lifestyle, aspirations, and level of independence.

Every situation is different, but we understand that support is often needed during periods of significant change, particularly following hospital discharge or rehabilitation.

Once we understand your circumstances and complete an assessment, we will work with you to put the right support in place as quickly as possible. Our team can also help guide families through the process, providing reassurance during what can often feel like an overwhelming time.

Yes. Many of the individuals we support have needs that extend beyond standard home care. This may involve coordinating multiple aspects of support, managing complex physical or cognitive challenges, or adapting care as circumstances change over time. Our role is to bring these elements together into a structured, personalised care plan that promotes both safety and independence.

Yes. In fact, some of the most meaningful rehabilitation happens in everyday life. Home provides opportunities to apply skills and strategies in real-world situations, whether that's building confidence with daily tasks, improving mobility around the home, or reconnecting with hobbies and activities that are important to the individual.

We work closely with wider clinical and therapy teams to ensure progress made during rehabilitation continues after returning home. Where appropriate, individuals may also continue to access Active Neuro's outpatient therapy services. Our teams can work alongside therapists and wider professionals to help integrate rehabilitation goals into day-to-day life at home.

In many cases, yes. With the right support in place, many individuals can continue living safely and successfully in their own homes while working towards increased independence and rehabilitation goals.

Every situation is different, but home-based rehabilitation support can often provide an effective alternative to more restrictive environments while helping people remain connected to their families, communities and support networks.

We regularly work alongside occupational therapists, physiotherapists, rehabilitation teams, case managers and other healthcare professionals to ensure support remains coordinated and focused on agreed outcomes.

This multidisciplinary approach helps create consistency, supports rehabilitation goals and ensures everyone involved is working towards the same objectives.

Families are often an important part of the individual's support network.

We work collaboratively with families, helping them feel informed and involved while also providing practical support and reassurance that care is being delivered safely and consistently.

Yes. Our services are regulated by the relevant care regulators, including the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in England and the Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW) in Wales.

This provides reassurance that care is delivered within robust clinical, governance and safeguarding frameworks, and is regularly assessed against recognised standards for quality, safety and effectiveness.

Active Assistance is registered for both Personal Care and the Treatment of Disease, Disorder or Injury, reflecting our ability to support individuals with complex health needs as well as day-to-day care requirements.

For many people with a brain injury, their care needs are likely to change over time. Our care plans are reviewed regularly and updated whenever there is a change in health, circumstances, rehabilitation goals or support needs, helping ensure care remains aligned with the individual's recovery journey.

Your first conversation doesn't need to be a commitment to care.

We will take time to understand your situation, answer any initial questions and discuss the support you may need. From there, we can arrange an assessment and recommend a care plan tailored to the individual.

For many families, that initial conversation provides valuable clarity and reassurance at a time when there can be a lot of uncertainty.

Funding arrangements vary depending on individual circumstances.

Care may be funded privately, through an insurance or personal injury settlement, or via NHS or local authority funding pathways. Our team can talk you through the options available and help you understand what may be appropriate in your situation.
