An expanding and increasingly comprehensive collection (village) of some of the more useful informational and resource links for professionals who assess and treat, or patients and families who cope with, physical and neurologic injury and impairments. The villa:
Addresses Brain Injury, a wide range of Neurobehavioral and Neurocognitive Disorders, Spinal Cord Injury, Stroke (CVA), Parkinson's, the Dementias, Spinal Cord Injury, Multiple Sclerosis and other neuromuscular diseases, other diseases of the brain and central nervous system, Chronic pain, Musculoskeletal Disorders, and many, many other diagnostic groups and functional problem areas....
Employs a holistic, stress X coping perspective that gives special attention to coping with the adaptational demands on self and systems provoked by drastic increases in demands that occur simultaneously with declines or limitations in functional status, independence and coping abilities...
Aspires to present a resource bank / switchboard of some of the most useful internet accessible tools and powerful strategies for helping to restore the balance between increases in stressful demands and depleted coping resources that accompany declines in health...
