Abstract
  • Mental health and psychosocial education were identified as areas that required improvement at Ascension St. Vincent Inpatient Rehabilitation in Evansville Indiana. Through this process, resources for clinicians and caregivers have been developed to encourage conversations about mental health with patients that have experienced an Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). There were four (n=4) patients admitted with an Acquired Brain Injury during the implementation phase of this project. Through the use of the depression screening tool, The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), three patients identified feelings of mild to moderate depressive symptoms at admission. Through promoting conversations surrounding mental health, mindfulness activities and the use of cognitive behavioral therapy interventions the patients that indicated mild to moderate symptoms of depression upon admission demonstrated a decrease in scores at discharge. The continued use of the assessment and intervention techniques were recommended to the site to continue addressing mental illness among this specific population.
