The WBRC recently participated in the 7th
Annual Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Research Forum: Detection and Treatment of
Sensory Deficits. The forum was held on March 31, 2017 at the VA Palo
Alto Healthcare System (VAPAHCS) main campus. The event was sponsored by
the Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center (DVBIC), VAPAHCS Polytrauma System
of Care and the WBRC.
Katie Taylor, WBRC CNVR Coordinator, is a Certified Brain Injury Specialist and presented on “Dual Sensory Loss: A Case Study.” It focused on deaf-blindness, its challenges and options available to Veteran patients that fall into this category.

Thanks to the support and
collaborative partnership between the WBRC and its colleagues who made the TBI
Research Forum possible, the blind/visually impaired Veterans we serve will
have access to the best resources and ground breaking information to enhance
their quality of treatment.
