About Brain Injury Solutions

The mission of Brain Injury Solutions, formerly Brain Injury Services of Southwest Virginia, is to help children and adults living with brain injury improve the quality of their lives and reintegrate into family and community. While many people receive good care in the hospital, most find once they are home, they lack supporting resources. This is even more true for many who already have limited means. Survivors of brain injury often find that they are lost and unsure how to navigate life following their injury. Many must relearn how to do everyday activities such as grocery shopping, working, and using a cell phone. Even simply visiting with a friend can be a new challenge. Fortunately, Brain Injury Solutions is here to help turn tragedy into hope!
