What this trial studies

This implementation study aims to enhance aftercare for patients with acquired brain injury (ABI) who are undergoing outpatient rehabilitation. The ABI-motion program focuses on promoting an active lifestyle and preventing ongoing complaints and poor health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) post-rehabilitation. Participants will receive brain education, joint therapy sessions with therapists and support buddies, and follow-up care from rehabilitation physicians. The study will assess the feasibility and health benefits of this comprehensive aftercare approach.
