The UAB-TBIMS In-home Cognitive Stimulation Guidebook offers activities to stimulate thinking skills of people with brain disorders. Each activity provides a group of tasks listed by their level of difficulty.
The tasks range from the least challenging, Level 1 to higher levels that are progressively more challenging. Select activities that you feel might be appropriate and follow the directions, increasing the level of difficulty as the progress warrants. Work on several tasks each day and shift tasks after a few days to provide variety. These tasks are not meant to substitute for professional therapy and use of the tasks does not guarantee recovery. The tasks are offered to provide some guidance and structure to people with brain disorders and their families.
The guidebook is free to be downloaded as a PDF and disseminated for educational purposes.
