NCT ID NCT05117619

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a 4-month in-home rehabilitation program called HOME for Us for people who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) at least one year ago and their family caregivers. The program involves eight sessions with an occupational therapist, focusing on adapting the home environment and teaching strategies to manage chronic TBI symptoms. Researchers want to see if it improves community reintegration, quality of life, and symptom management for the person with TBI, while also reducing caregiver burden and depression.
