Further Details

We specialise in the sleep and activity assessment and treatment of people with acquired brain injuries. Including treatments for insomnia in both patients and carers and pacing interventions. Our unique assessment approaches have been commisioned by personal injury legal firms to objectively describe functional ability, fatigue and sleep disturbances which have formed expert witness testimony and resulted in favourable settlements for compensation claims as well as providing rehab providers with useful information on the timing and level of delivery of rehab interventions for clients. We work collaboratively with a range of healthcare professionals.
