2002
Background: This case study describes a 33-year-old man who sustained a severe head injury with cerebrovascular complications in a road traffic accident. Method: His rehabilitation program focused on the everyday problemshe faced as a result of cognitive deficits resulting from his brain injury. Twelve goals were set after negotiations between the man, his wife, and the rehabilitation team. Results: All goals were achieved by the end of his program. We describe how they were achieved and provide data for three goals in particular. We discuss the advantages of a goal planning approach in cognitive or neuropsychological rehabilitation.
