主要目的：确定家长是否认为学校为遭受创伤性脑损伤的孩子提供了必要的支持。研究设计：访谈，以确定家长的看法。方法和程序：对66名在过去2年内经历过脑损伤的学龄儿童的主要照顾者进行了访谈，了解在他们的孩子重新入学后的3个月内需要和提供哪些类型的特殊支持。然后，他们对从学校获得支持或服务的困难程度以及他们对支持或服务的满意度进行了评分。主要结果和结果：大多数参与者没有意识到需要以学校为基础的服务，即使当伤害是严重的。几乎所有家长认为需要调整时间表的学生都获得了这种住宿，但很少有学生得到学校的咨询或行为支持。结论：结果表明，参与者感受到相对较少的学校支持，特别是考虑到持续性脑外伤儿童所经历的实际学术、行为和社会挑战。学校和医院必须采取步骤，确保适当的头部受伤后支助服务。
Primary objective: To determine whether parents believe schools provided necessary support to their children who sustained traumatic brain injuries.Research design: Interview, to determine parent perceptions.Methods and procedure: Sixty-six primary caregivers of school-age children who experienced a TBI within the previous 2 years were interviewed regarding what types of special support were needed by and provided for their children during the 3 months immediately following school re-entry. They then rated how difficult it was to obtain support or services from the school and how satisfied they were with the support or services.Main outcomes and results: The majority of participants did not perceive the need for school-based services, even when the injury was severe. Almost all students whose parents perceived a need for an adjusted schedule were granted that accommodation, but few students received school-based counselling or behavioural support.Conclusions: Results indicated that participants perceived relatively few school-based supports, particularly given the actual academic, behavioural and social challenges experienced by children who have sustained a TBI. Schools and hospitals must take steps to ensure appropriate post-head injury support services.
