Acquired brain injury (ABI) sufferers can improve their quality of life if they are rehabilitated through a support group, if one expert is to be believed.
Darren Davidson, who recently helped to set up a regular summit in Orangeville county, told the local Citizen news source those who attend can gain the confidence to live more independently.
He explained the meetings can take the form of workshops, day trips or peer gatherings.
Two patients Kevin Franklin and David Armstrong - have recently begun attending the events, with the former working on numeracy and the latter explaining it is important to keep spirits high.
"[Our group] will allow ABI survivors an opportunity to access resources and funding," Mr Davidson told the news provider.
Last month, Paula Correia from the Berwick Neighbourhood Centre in Australia told the Star News Group such gatherings have also worked well in her community.
She underlined the importance of keeping up social interaction after suffering an ABI.
