Neuropsychological Initial Needs Assessment

An initial needs assessment involves a detailed understanding of a person’s situation and needs using  interviews, questionnaires and clinical observation. It helps to tease apart what may be contributing to their difficulties and by considering whether it is related to a brain injury, a health condition, or related to mood and adjustment related difficulties. The assessment is helpful in identifying both strengths and weaknesses, and to support development of effective rehabilitation plans and interventions and to review and monitor a person’s progress and recovery, or otherwise. A thorough formal report is generated with the recommendations.
