Invitation to Attend Public Presentation
Are you interested in learning about a research project seeking to explore families’ perspectives and loss experiences living with an acquired brain injury?
An invitation is extended to all those experiencing living with an acquired brain injury – survivors, family members, and friends to attend a public presentation given by Ms. Jane Karpa a doctoral student at the University of Manitoba. Ms. Karpa will be letting you know about an upcoming study called: Families’ experiences living with ABI. The purpose of the study is to examine families’ experiences living with ABI so that health care professionals and agencies can better understand families’ perspectives. Understanding of family perspectives can inform family-centered care.
Ms. Karpa has her own experiences of living with ABI, and during her presentation she will briefly share her experiences, qualifications and background. Further information about the study including participation criteria, how data will be collected and participation time commitments will be provided.
